Pitch Condition/Report:

The whole idea of this tournament is to entertain the fans. It is a reason why the pitch has been prepared to suit the batsmen more than the bowlers. We haven’t seen that much grass kept on the surface. The pitch generates true bounce which makes it easy for the batsmen to hit any parts of the ground. Bowling first will be a good option on this wicket.
