Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium Pitch Report:

The pitch is likely to offer good batting conditions throughout the match, with the potential for high-scoring encounters. Batters who can time the ball well and hit boundaries will be at an advantage. However, bowlers who can exploit any movement in the air or off the pitch will be crucial in containing the scoring.
