Ekana Stadium Pitch Report:
The pitch at Ekana Cricket Stadium presents a narrative tailored for bowlers, evolving through two distinct stages. Initially, pace bowlers thrive, leveraging the swing of the new ball, particularly in evening matches under the lights. As the game progresses and the ball loses its hardness, spinners take advantage of the changing conditions, which increasingly support their style of play. For batters, accumulating runs proves challenging, as the pitch tends to steer the game towards a more cautious scoring approach.
