Pitch Report
The pitch at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground in Florida has generally favored teams batting first during day games. However, since this is a night match, the chasing team may have the advantage. Batting tends to be easier at this venue as the new ball comes onto the bat nicely with generous seam movement for the bowlers. A score in the range of 150-165 should be a good target to chase down.
