Pitch Report

The surface at Pallekele offers a balanced contest between bat and ball. The pitch generally provides good bounce and pace, enabling batters to score freely during the power-play. However, recent matches suggest that bowlers have had a greater impact, making run-scoring comparatively challenging. Spinners, in particular, have played a crucial role in the middle overs, consistently taking wickets and applying pressure on the batting side.
