AH-W vs NB-W Pitch Report

The pitch at Colin Maiden Park is known for being a batter's paradise, with a flat and even surface that provides little assistance to bowlers. The ball tends to come onto the bat quite nicely, making strokeplay relatively easy for batters.

While spinners can get some turn on the pitch, they may struggle to find much purchase due to the evenness of the surface. Pace bowlers can generate some swing and seam movement with the new ball.
