Pitch Report

The first match of WPL 2025 was played at the Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara, where the surface seemed to be a lot more in favour of the batters. But, as the tournament progressed to the fifth encounter of the season, it is likely to assist bowlers more than the initial clashes. Hence, batters will find it more difficult to score runs. The game on Tuesday looks similar and the bowlers have high chances to dominate the game. Teams winning the toss might opt to bat first in order to utilize the initial batting conditions in the beginning.
