WI vs. PNG in the T20 World Cup 2024
Date and time: June 2, at 2:30 PM GMT, 10:30 AM Local, and 8:00 PM IST
Location: Guyana’s Providence Stadium
Providence Stadium Pitch Report:
Province Stadium’s pitch is well known for being evenly distributed, allowing bat and ball to engage in a fair game. As the game progresses, spinners become more potent, although fast bowlers first profit from atmospheric conditions that favor swing and seam movement.
This ground is thought to be more bowler-friendly overall, especially in the evenings when the pitch becomes slower and spinners can make better use of the wearing surface.
