ICC Academy Ground No.2 Pitch Report:
The batting-friendly nature of the pitch at ICC Academy Ground No.2 is particularly pronounced in the early stages of the match. However, as the game unfolds, the pitch tends to lose some of its pace, making it less favourable for aggressive batting. Consequently, opting to bat first becomes a strategic preference at this venue.
