Pitch Report
The pitch in Nagpur is generally good to bat on, but don't expect scores in the range of 180-200 or above. It will be more of a 150-160 kind of pitch with some help for the spinners.
Historically, the pitch also slows down as the game progresses, making it slightly difficult to handle the spinners.
