edgbaston pitch report
The Edgbaston track in Birmingham offers a balanced 22-yard track which offers an engaging contest between bat and ball. Given the early morning local start time and typical overhead clouds, seamers from both sides will enjoy significant lateral movement and swing with the new ball. However, as the initial moisture evaporates and the match progresses, the hybrid surface will settle well, allowing the batsmen to play their shots with an average first innings score around 145-158. The pitch is expected to provide good grip and slow pace in the middle overs, allowing Bangladesh’s powerful spin attack to come into play.
