Pitch Report
A good batting track beckons in Almeria with ample help on offer for the pacers, who should get movement off the surface, keeping their batters on their toes. There isn't much turn on offer for the spinners, who will have to be wary of the dimensions of the ground. Wickets in hand will be key for both sides, who will look to bat first upon winning the toss. 150 should par on this surface, with the pitch not likely to change much during the game.
