The Oval Pitch Report:
The Oval pitch is known for being a good surface for batting in shorter formats. While pacers might get some early assistance with the new ball, the pitch generally settles, allowing batters to play their shots freely. An average first-innings score of around 160 in The Hundred suggests that setting a good total is achievable, but the ground also has a history of successful run-chases. Teams winning the toss will likely choose to bowl first to take advantage of the conditions and chase under the lights.
