Pitch Report
The pitch at the Marsa Sports Complex in Malta is a good one to bat on, with conditions especially suitable for batters during the first innings. With the wicket expected to slow down as the match progresses, bowlers will come into play in the second innings. Anything over 100 runs should be a decent and defendable first innings score at the venue.
