Wankhede Stadium Pitch Report

Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium is considered a great surface for batting. Teams have usually racked up a big amount of runs at the venue. In the recent World Cup 2023 too, teams managed to score at a brisk rate. Chasing is not an issue at the venue too, however, the new ball seams and swings under the lights. But after 10-15 overs, batting becomes easy in the chase.
