Brabourne Stadium Mumbai Pitch Report for WPL
It’s a great wicket to bat on and the batters would love to play their shots, especially in the first innings. It is a venue where slower balls and cutters will be very useful weapons to use.
The toss winners should choose to bat first as it is an excellent surface to bat first and as the game progresses it will become sluggish.
Spinners will also have a role to play in the middle overs considering the slowness and the dimensions of the ground.
