Pitch Report

The average first innings total at the Sylhet venue is 165 runs in domestic T20 games. However, a winning score at the ground will be in the excess of 175 runs. It will be too tough to score a total as large as this on this venue. Bowlers will enjoy the wicket and batters are likely to struggle to take advantage of those small boundaries. But still, the death overs are likely to be expensive as some of the finishers will be aiming to clear those smallish boundaries. The wicket on offer at the Sylhet ground is a slow one. Spinners from both sides are likely to have an excellent outing with the ball. Batsmen will have to be patient and find ways of piercing the gaps and scoring runs. It will be difficult to hit too many sixes on this ground.
