Aurora Stadium Launceston Pitch Report

The Pitch at Launceston’s Aurora Stadium is a decent batting track. The wicket at the venue provides equal assistance to both, the bowlers and the batters. The pacers usually get some movement off the surface in the initial stages of the match. The spinners come in handy during the middle overs.

The teams chasing a total generally have had greater success in the Aurora Stadium, hence, any side after winning the toss must choose to bowl first. Anything above 165 will however prove to be a challenging total in this ground as the batters have found it difficult to get going here in the recently concluded WBBL season.
