IND vs NED: Pitch Report

The surface in Bengaluru has been batting-friendly. The boundaries are shorter, the outfield is quicker, and the pitch is mostly flat. It is a paradise for the batters without a doubt. In the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023, New Zealand scored 401 runs against Pakistan. Australia scored 367 runs against Pakistan. But there have also been instances where some of the teams have collapsed to the surprise of everyone. 

The bowlers do have some assistance from the surface. In the match between England and Sri Lanka, there was some extra bounce and seam off the surface. Spinners got the ball to spin during Pakistan's matches against Australia and New Zealand. The key for the bowlers would be to bowl with accuracy and to attack the batters with tighter lines. Attacking the stumps would be key.
