Pitch Report

It will be the first afternoon game this season at the Wankhede, and the pitch might behave differently than in the first game here. Both batters and bowlers will likely get equal help from the pitch. The average first innings score here in the last five games has been over 160 runs, but this might be a low-scoring thriller.
