The Headingley surface in T20 cricket offers a balanced contest, leaning slightly in favour of batters. With good pace and bounce, it allows stroke-makers to play freely, but bowlers aren’t without opportunities. Seamers can extract movement early, especially under cloud cover, while spinners often become influential during the middle overs.
