Pitch Report
The surface at Basseterre is more favourable to the bowlers and has experienced some low-scoring games in the past. The pacers will be assisted more from the pitch early on in the game. During the early stages of the game, batsmen will have to play with a lot of caution. Spinners will become effective from the middle overs.
