Pitch Report
This will be the first time that a Women’s Premier League match will be held at this stadium. It is a superb batting paradise which would aid stroke play and keep the momentum going.
It helps the spinners in the later stages and dew might set in. The captain that wins the toss would likely field first, restrict the opponent, and chase down the target.
