WI vs AUS: Pitch Report (West Indies vs Australia)
The pitch at Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados, is expected to be similar to pitches in the past, being favourable for both batters and bowlers with a little extra bounce and it will favor the pacers at the start of the match, with spinners gaining some help in the last couple of days as rough patches develop on the pitch. The average first innings score at the venue is around 300-350, and teams chasing more than 250 in the fourth inning will face challenging conditions.
