pitch report
It is a matter of relief for the fans that the drainage system of R Premadasa ground is considered quite good. Here the new ball is likely to help the fast bowlers in the beginning, because the ball can flutter in the air. As the game progresses, the pitch begins to slow down, providing additional support to the bowlers and making it difficult for the batsmen to hit big shots. Spin bowlers also prove to be effective on this ground, in such a situation the role of Pakistan’s Usman Tariq and India’s Varun Chakraborty can be important. The weather in Colombo is also increasing the worries of the batsmen, because when there is strong wind, the ball can rotate and sway more.
