Pitch Report
As seen in the PSL game between Lahore Qalandars and Quetta Gladiators, the pitch did play well with the ball skidding on nicely to the bat. While the pacers got the ball to move around, the batsmen enjoyed the conditions, with Chris Gayle and Fakhar Zaman going big.
A similar sort of surface is expected on Wednesday as well, with 160-170 being par at this venue. The spinners could also have a say in the outcome with some turn on offer. Both teams will look to chase, with dew playing a part in the second innings.
