Sophia Gardens Pitch Report
Historically, Sophia Gardens in Cardiff has been a favorable track for batters. However, in recent times, bowlers have gained the upper hand, with the ball zipping off the surface and challenging batters.
Spinners often become more effective in the later stages of the game when the ball gets older. Teams usually prefer to bowl first, as the surface tends to settle and becomes better for batting under lights.
