Wankhede Stadium pitch report
The pitch of Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai is favorable for batting. Here the bowlers face more challenges. There is a possibility of a high scoring match today. Anil Kumble, looking at the pitch, expressed surprise that there is grass here. He said that the bowlers may get help in the first 3 to 4 overs, so the batsmen need to be careful at that time.
