MPL 2023 Final: Pitch Report

The pitch at the MCA Stadium in Pune has been a challenging one for the batters. We have witnessed a bit of two-paced pitch more n the slower side where the batters will have to apply themselves for runs.

Bat first should be the choice after winning the Toss, and any score above 150 will be competitive, and a score beyond 170 can be a real challenge for the chasing side.
