HH vs MS Pitch Report

The Bellerive Oval is traditionally a batting venue, but in recent games fast bowlers showed more dominance. The surface offers good bounce and carry and pacers will be impressive with new ball.

Batters will be scoring freely once they set in and spinners will have only limited impact, but variations prove to be helpful.
