Pitch Report
The pitch at Pune promises to be an exciting encounter. South Africa and New Zealand faced each other at Pune with Proteas smashing 357 for 4 in 50 overs and then bowled out the Kiwis cheaply.
It promises to be another superb batting paradise. It might help pacers initially before it becomes a flat batting track. The captain that wins the toss would likely bat first and post a decent total before putting pressure on the opponents.
