Pitch Report For Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium
Teams batting first have won every game so far in the series. The Gaddafi Stadium’s playing surface will be completely different from that of the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
At the stadium, it is exceedingly difficult to defend a score. It is recommended that the toss winner bowls first out here as the pitch offers a lot of assistance to seamers in the first couple of overs.
The only T20 international matches played there so far have all been victories for the team that was being chased.
