WI vs SL: Pitch Report

The wicket at Sabina Park is even, which supports all aspects of the game. There will be early swing and decent bounce for the quick bowlers. However, the wicket is expected to slow down with time, assisting the spinners in the lateral stages. Hence, it will be a good decision to bat first in these conditions, because shot-making will get difficult with time.
