Pitch Report

The pitch at the National Stadium in Karachi is widely regarded as a batting-friendly surface. The pitch generally supports aggressive stroke play, enabling batters to score at a brisk pace. However, as the game advances, it gradually offers more assistance to spinners. Furthermore, the presence of heavy dew in evening matches often gives an advantage to teams batting second. The surface usually delivers high-scoring games, with an average first-innings score of about 165 runs.
