Pitch Report

Shere Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka, is a spin-friendly surface where spinners dominate as the match progresses. The pitch tends to slow down, making stroke-making difficult in the latter stages. Pacers get some assistance early on but rely more on variations as the game goes on. Batters will need to apply themselves, as the ball grips and turns later. Given these conditions, teams winning the toss usually prefer to bowl first, taking advantage of any early movement before the pitch deteriorates.
