Pitch report

The Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai has historically been known for its batting-friendly pitch. With short boundaries, high-scoring encounters are common at this venue. The pitch remains intact throughout the match. Furthermore, the presence of dew in the latter half of the game will give an edge to the chasing team. This is why the captain winning the toss will prefer to bowl first, ensuring they make the most of the conditions under lights.
