Pallekele International Cricket Stadium Pitch Report

The Pallekele Stadium pitch is a batting-friendly surface where the batters tend to dominate. There won’t be much help for the pacers in the surface. Batters will not face much difficulty to settle in, and once settled they might go on to score big runs here. As the matches progress, the Pallekele International Stadium pitch tends to turn a bit drier and starts favoring the spinners. With both sides having great spin options, it would not be surprising if we get to see match-turning performances from the spin department.

A score of around 270 would be an ideal total at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium. Captains should look to chase here.

Pallekele Weather Forecast for SL vs AFG ODI

The weather would remain partly cloudy over Pallekele over the next few days. There is a 50% chance of rain on Friday hence the 1st SL vs AFG ODI might be a rain-affected game.
