National Stadium Karachi Pitch Report for PAK vs NZ ODI series

The pitch at Karachi’s National Stadium is a balanced surface that assists both, the batters as well as the bowlers. The batters once set, tend to score easily at this surface. The pacers may find some movement in the initial overs however, later on, they may have to rely on their variations. The National Stadium’s surface, like any other pitch in the sub-continent, will provide a significant amount of turn to the spinners in the middle overs.
