Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai: Pitch Report

The Wankhede Stadium has historically offered favourable conditions for batters due to the flatter red-soil wickets. Despite the batters having the edge in the season, the bowlers have found some help in the form of movement of the surface and grip for spinners. The shorter boundaries and fast outfield make it easier to score runs, and with this being a night fixture, dew is expected to play a significant role.
