Kanpur Green Park pitch report
Kanpur’s Green Park Stadium has hosted 5 games on the trot, and this will be the 6th successive game on this track. It has been seen that the pitch is getting difficult to bat on as the days are passing by. The pitch is getting slower and slower, which is making the job of the batters a lot tougher.
The spinners have dominated in the tournament so far, and they are again expected to play a very big part in this match. In the last match between England and Sri Lanka, Sanath Jayasuriya bowled an excellent spell of 4-2-3-4, where the batters were facing a lot of difficulties in reading him.
Legendary performance on debut from Stuart Binny as he guides @India__Legends to a winning total!
The first man of the match of this season! 💙😍#Roadsafetyworldseries #RSWS #Legends #legendsareback #Roadsafetyawareness #sachintendulkar #yehjunghailegendary #playerofthematch pic.twitter.com/z5QTqRMOBZ

Apart from Jayasuriya, Johan Botha and Chaturanga de Silva have also been very effective in the tournament. The pitch is getting better under lights, and the chasing teams will have an advantage. Out of 5 matches, three have been won by the chasing teams, and the average 1st innings score has been 142 runs.
The initial overs of the match are best for scoring runs, and the middle overs have been dominated by the spinners in the tournament so far. Green Park’s boundaries are not that big, and the batters can take advantage of that.
