Wankhede Stadium Pitch Report:
The Pitch at Wankhede Stadium is known for its batting-friendly and high-scoring games, but in the last encounter, the pitch favoured bowlers a lot, so overall its good wicket for a high-voltage clash. Dew is expected in the second inning, so the toss-winning team is likely to field, and their chances of winning the match will be quite higher.
