Pitch and Weather Report

Kensington Oval has a pitch of balanced nature. Batters get good carry and bounce throughout their innings, allowing them to play their shots. Although being a batters paradise, the pitch tends to slow down gradually as the match progresses. The spinners get good assistance under this condition. Seamers on the other hand will face difficulties in bowling as the track has minimum support for them.
