New Zealand vs Sri Lanka 1st T20I: Hagley Oval, Pitch Report

The Surface at Hagley Oval generally provides early assistance to bowlers, particularly pacers, who can take advantage of the good bounce and movement in the initial overs. The conditions early in the innings help create pressure, making it easier for bowlers to restrict the opposition to a manageable total. As the match progresses, the pitch tends to settle, becoming more batting-friendly and making it easier to chase a target in the second innings. Therefore, the team winning the toss might opt to bowl first, with the strategy of chasing a well-set target offering a better chance of success.
