Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium Pitch Report:
The Chattogram pitch presents a slower pace and favours spinners with its propensity to offer turn. However, seamers might find early assistance with the new ball. Considering the typical hot and humid weather of the subcontinent, batting second could potentially offer an advantage at this venue.
