Dharamsala Pitch report

The pitch at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium is famous for having batting friendly conditions where the ball meets the bat perfectly. The venue's high altitude lets the shots travel further which makes six hitting a lot easier.

This is going to be the first game hosted by the venue in the ongoing season, so both teams will take some time to analyze the pitch before taking a decision on the game play.
