MI vs SRH Pitch Report: Runs galore expected
Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium is known for favouring batters. The pitch features short square boundaries, plenty of bounce, and pace to make strokeplay simple for the batters. It is expected that the pitch helps the fast bowlers in the first half of the game during the powerplay. It will allow them to take advantage of seam movement and take a few wickets. The pitch is unlikely to provide any assistance to the spinners.
