Sydney Cricket Ground Pitch Report for BBL 2021-22

The Sydney Cricket Ground’s pitch is a sporting wicket with a fair bit of help for both- the bowlers and the batters. The batsmen, once they settle in, can play their shots with ease. The pacers tend to get a significant bit of help off the surface. Though the toss hasn’t played a major role in the T20s played here in the past, anyone who wins the toss must look to chase. Anything above 160 would be a good total in the here.
