Lotus Sports Club Ground, Lusaka: Pitch Report

The Lotus Sports Club Ground in Lusaka is expected to have a balanced pitch that will aid both batters and bowlers. Batters will be able to play strokes on the up, but bowlers might benefit from early purchase with the new ball. Dew shouldn’t have much of an effect because this is an afternoon game, but if the surface turns dry, spinners might pose a serious threat.
