Wankhede Stadium-Pitch Report
As per the prediction made on the last match on this wicket, it was a belter where PBKS scored 214 runs but Mumbai Indians failed to chase this score and lost the match by 13 runs. This pitch will be no different, it will help the batsman and initial help for the bowlers on this wicket. The wicket will play well throughout the match but during the later half of the game, it might bring little difficulty for bowlers to grip the ball especially spinners. So any team will field first and prefer to chase the score batting second.
