Pitch Report
The Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium has witnessed a significant shift in the pitch conditions as the tournament has progressed. Initially, the pacers may find some movement off the surface, allowing them to exploit the early stages of the game. However, as time goes on, the pitch has started favouring spinners, offering them ample assistance. The batters will have to adapt quickly to the conditions and adjust their gameplay accordingly.
