Pitch Report:
The Wankhede pitch is generally flat and hard, providing consistent bounce and pace that encourages aggressive stroke play. The shorter boundaries and quick outfield offer more opportunities for run-scoring. Although the pitch tends to favor batsmen, fast bowlers can generate some movement with the new ball, and spinners may find grip as the match progresses.
