Pitch Report

The Harare Sports Club pitch is a balanced surface that assists spinners more than pacers. Batters may find it challenging to score runs as the ball tends to stick to the deck before coming onto the bat. Speedsters who can take the pace out of the ball are likely to draw good results on this deck. The average first innings score at this venue is 229, with teams bowling first historically winning the game.
