CPL 2024: ABF vs SLK

Date and Time: September 3; 11:00 pm GMT/ 04:30 am IST (Sept 4)/ 7:00 pm local (Sept 3)

Sir Vivian Richards Stadium Pitch Report:

The pitch at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua, is typically a batting-friendly surface. The outfield is generally fast, and the square can offer good bounce to the bowlers. However, the pitch can vary depending on the conditions during the match. If there is a lot of moisture in the air, the pitch might become slower and offer more turn to the spinners. Overall, it is expected to be a good wicket for batsmen, but bowlers will need to be disciplined to contain the scoring.
