The pitch at the Warner Park in St Kitts has historically been a tough surface to bat on. This pitch is famous for its slow nature, and the spinners have been quite effective here in the past. The slow and low bounce on the track has troubled the batters, and the slower bowlers have taken full advantage of it.
