Pitch Report – FIN vs CZR

The pitch is good for batters while batting first and the fast bowlers might be trouble a bit in the middle or death overs however skilled batters won’t get dismissed soon so opening batters and middle-order batters are good for the game because it is going to be a high scoring game for sure and the average score on this pitch is 120-135 as per previous matches.
