Pitch Report

The surface at Sky Stadium in Wellington is generally well-balanced but tends to favour batters slightly. It provides true bounce for strokeplay while offering some assistance to fast bowlers because of the cool, windy weather. Early in the game, pacers might see slight movement with the new ball, but overall, the conditions favour batters throughout the match. In T20 matches, teams often score around 162.
