IND vs SL Pitch Report: In the ICC World Cup 2023, the Indian team will face Sri Lanka today at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Team India's morale is high, having won all six matches of the tournament so far. Rohit Brigade will try to secure their place in the semi-finals by registering their seventh consecutive win. At the same time, the path to the semi-finals is not easy for Sri Lanka. Kusal Mendis-led Sri Lanka must win all their remaining matches.
How does Wankhede pitch play?
The important match of World Cup 2023 between India and Sri Lanka (IND vs SL) is to be played at Wankhede Cricket Stadium in Mumbai. Wankhede pitch is considered a paradise for batsmen. There is heavy rain of fours and sixes on this ground of Mumbai. Due to good bounce in the pitch, the ball hits the bat very well and scoring runs is very easy.
So far, two matches have been played on this ground in the World Cup 2023. South Africa had scored 399 runs on the scoreboard in the first match, while in the second match, the team had scored 382 runs. That is, if we look at these figures, the pitch helps the batsmen a lot.
What do the figures say?
Wankhede ground has so far hosted a total of 31 matches in ODI cricket. Out of these, the team batting first has won 16 matches. At the same time, the chasing team has won in 15 matches. That means toss does not play any special role here. However, it has to be kept in mind that dew can also play an important role in this match.
Team India is in great form
The Indian team is in tremendous form at the moment. The story of the team's resounding victory against England was written by the fast bowlers. Mohammed Shami has taken 9 wickets in two matches and is wreaking havoc with his pace. Facing Jasprit Bumrah has proved to be a difficult task for the batsmen. In the spin department, Kuldeep Yadav's spinning balls have also made life miserable for the batsmen.
In batting, captain Rohit Sharma has been successful in giving a strong start to the team. At the same time, Virat Kohli is also scoring a lot of runs from his bat. However, the form of Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer is a matter of concern for the team.
