West Indies vs Bangladesh, 2nd Test: What is the pitch report of Sabina Park?

New Delhi: Although the Windies and Bangladesh have both been eliminated from the race of WTC, the former will look to end the test series with a dominant 2-0 win over the visitors. Bangladesh had seen a recent in their cricketing fortunes after thumping the Pakistani team in their home. However, since then the team has seen a dramatic turn of events. This saw a thumping from the Indian team and a shock defeat to South Africa in their home.

Meanwhile, things are even gloomy for the Windies who have managed to win only a few games here and there and apart from that they have not managed to do something sustainable and substantial as far as the red ball is concerned. The only positive that the Windies can take is the win against Australia which will give a lot of confidence to the Calypso Kings.

What is the pitch report of Sabina Park?

The pitch at Sabina Park is known to be favourable for batters, promising an exciting contest. However, spinners will also find some assistance from the surface, which could play a pivotal role in the game. Naturally, the 4th inning will be crucial for both teams given that a good contest of bat and ball can happen.

Additionally, there will be some extra bounce for the fast bowlers. The bounce is not likely to be consistent, with some deliveries pitched around a hard length kicking off unpredictably. The team winning the toss is likely to opt to bat first to set a challenging target for their opponents.
