STA vs REN: Pitch Report

The wickets on this ground normally favour both bowlers and batters equally, and balls will come onto the bats easily. The bowlers will also have early swing and seam movement in the first powerplay with a new ball and as the game progresses the batters will look more in control and play their strokes freely.
