Pitch Report
The Pallekele International Cricket Stadium features big boundaries, yet the outfield is exceptionally fast. It has proven to be an excellent setting for batsmen, witnessing a plethora of runs being scored. While the surface doesn’t offer much assistance to fast bowlers, spinners have thrived due to the pronounced turn the ball takes on this pitch.
