Big Bash League 2023-24, Match 26:

Date and time: January 4, 08:15 am GMT | 01:45 pm IST | 07:15 pm local
Venue: Docklands Stadium, Melbourne

Docklands Stadium Pitch Report:

Melbourne’s Docklands Stadium features a pitch that offers a balanced playing field for both batters and bowlers. In the initial phases of the match, the ball comes onto the bat smoothly, facilitating well-timed shots and making boundary scoring relatively accessible. However, as the game advances, spinners tend to become more influential, posing a challenge for batters in establishing their rhythm. Given the favorable conditions early on, the team winning the toss is anticipated to opt for batting first, aiming to capitalize on the pitch dynamics at the venue.
