Pitch report
The pitch at the R. Premadasa Stadium is expected to be a batting-friendly surface for the India vs Bangladesh Super Fours match on September 15, 2023. The pitch is hard and dry, with good pace and bounce. Pacers may get some help towards the latter half of the match, but spinners will have the advantage in the middle overs.
Batters should be able to score freely on the pitch, especially early on. However, they must be careful of the spinners in the middle overs. Pacers may also get some reverse swing towards the end of the innings.
Overall, the pitch should be conducive to a high-scoring match. Chasing should be the preferred strategy, as the ball is likely to get softer as the match progresses.
The Ind vs Ban Super Four game will be telecast live on the Star Sports network in India. The match will also be streamed live on the Disney+ Hotstar app and website.
