Lauderhill Florida pitch report 4th T20
The average score across the 11 complete T20Is at this venue is 155.4. Overall, across the 24 T20 matches here, the average score at the Central Broward Regional Park is 157.
Teams batting first have won nine of the eleven T20Is here, which suggests that the pitch tends to slow down as the match progresses, and the bowlers with variations up their sleeve have a greater say than the rest. The likes of Sunil Narine, Mustafizur Rahman, and Dwayne Bravo are amongst the top-5 leading wicket-takers at this venue, who tend to vary their pace with good effect.
Also, this the same venue where team India had lost the match by one run, despite posting 244 runs on the scoreboard while chasing against West Indies in 2016.
While the pitch is likely to provide more or less equal assistance to both the batters and the bowlers, one can expect a high-scoring encounter on a fresh Central Broward Regional Park pitch on Saturday.
