Pitch Report:
The Pallekele wicket is known for being well-balanced, full of nuance and challenge for both batters and bowlers throughout a match. In the early overs, fast bowlers can extract noticeable swing and seam thanks to a fresh surface and overcast conditions. The bounce is true and carries through to the keeper, giving quick bowlers a natural advantage. Once the ball softens and the field settles by mid-game, the surface becomes very batting-friendly, offering value for shots, and even under lights, it tends to hold rather than flatten completely. By later stages, especially in limited-overs or under lights, spinners gain grip and turn as the pitch slows and offers variable bounce.
