Providence Stadium Pitch Report

Going by the previous T20I, which was held on Sunday (August 6), the wickets are a little tough to score freely, making it tough for the batting team, but if a batter spends time in the middle, any contribution will be valuable as bowlers, especially the slower bowler come into play.

Not only spinners, even the quicker bowlers enjoyed success in the last match. However, if the batter applies himself, there is runs for the taking. So, once again a total of 155 plus will be challenging on these wickets.
