Pitch Report

Multan Cricket Stadium has a batting-friendly surface, mostly in the first half of the game, on day 1 and day 2. The average first-innings score here has been 367 runs while the overall average score is 351. However, the spinners will get a going here as the cracks develop on the track on the third and fourth day of the game. The toss-winning skipper will look ahead to bat first and trouble the opponent with the spin attack in the later part of the game.
