England Women vs Sri Lanka Women: Pitch Report
The surface at the R. Premadasa Stadium is a classic subcontinental pitch, where spinners tend to dominate. Pacers often come under pressure, as batters generally find it easier to score off them. The dry nature of the wicket assists spinners, especially during the middle overs, and it tends to slow down even more as the innings progresses. As a result, captains often prefer to bat first.
