Pitch Report

The pitch at Newlands Stadium in Cape Town is often a balanced surface. This surface is initially challenging for batsmen, but becomes more favourable as the match progresses. Initially, fast bowlers can swing the ball, making it difficult for batsmen. However, after the first few overs, the pitch settles down, providing consistent bounce and allowing the batsmen to take control of the match.
