Pitch Report:

The National Cricket Stadium in Grenada has historically favoured fast bowlers, offering good pace and bounce. Both teams have strong sets of pacers, and this match is expected to be dominated by fast bowlers. On the batting side, the pitch tests players' temperament and skill, and those who are technically sound are likely to score runs. However, players who don't play cautiously early can lose their wickets. Chasing in the fourth innings has traditionally been successful at this venue, with three out of four Tests won by the team batting last. This trend could influence a team’s decision after winning the toss.
