Pune MCA Pitch Report

The pitch at the MCA Stadium is known to be spin-friendly, offering turn and bounce to bowlers, especially in the middle overs. However, it is also balanced, as the batsmen also get a lot of help here, which leads to high-scoring matches. This is going to be a high-scoring match and if the score does not exceed 200, as was often seen in previous IPLs, then the main reason for this could be good bowling rather than help from the pitch. Interestingly, 4 T20Is have been played here so far and both the teams batting first and chasing the target have tasted victory twice.

The T20 series between India and England will be broadcast live on various channels of Star Sports Network in India. Cricket lovers can watch these exciting matches live on their television sets.
