Pitch Report
The pacers have had a better track record as compared to the spinners at this particular venue. The batters would look to play the first few overs cautiously of each innings carefully due to the seam movement expected to be on offer. The average first innings total at this venue in T20Is is 155. Winning the toss and opting to bat first would be the way to go here.
