OV vs WF: Pitch report
The track at the Otago University is known to be batting friendly and batsmen can use that to their advantage to post big runs on the board. The bounce on the pitch is even and the ball comes on well to the bat. The boundaries are also small, which makes scoring easier. 380 runs were scored at this venue in the only match played at the ground in this year's edition of the Super Smash.
