Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore: Pitch Report
The Gaddafi Stadium surface is expected to offer a good contest between bat and ball, with batters likely to benefit from the consistent bounce and conditions that favour stroke play. England's recent successful chase of 430 against Sri Lanka highlights the scoring potential on offer in the tri-series. However, fast bowlers could find some movement with the new ball, while spinners may play an important role during the middle overs.
