The flatter the pitch, the wider the gap between the two sides.
Hard pitching will bring teams closer together. WI have incredible batting depth and a very decent bowling unit, but PNG have pushed it forward adequately.
I hope today’s pitch is just an aberration… #T20World Cup— Akash Chopra (@cricketaakash) June 2, 2024
Roston Chase is starting to understand his limited-overs game a lot better. He is also a player who is good at spin.
