Sydney Showground Stadium pitch report for T20
Sydney Showground Stadium is set to host its 3rd BBL game of the ongoing season. It is safe to say that the pacers have dominated on this ground, and they have got a good amount of help from the pitch. Sydney Thunder got out on 15 runs on this very stadium, where the quicks of Adelaide Strikers dismantled the batting attack.
A couple of BBL 12 games have been played here, where the average 1st innings score has been 130 runs. In the last match, Sydney Thunder managed to hold Brisbane Heat for just 121/6, and they won the match by 10 wickets. So, it is certain that if the batters can apply themselves, run-scoring is not that tough here.
It is clear that the pacers will get a good amount of help with the new ball, and they will trouble the batters. The outfield here is quite fast, and the boundaries are not that big as well. This is a good track for a T20 match, and the captains are expected to bowl first after winning the toss.
