KNI vs TIT Pitch Report
Mangaung Oval, Bloemfontein
This is a ground where bowlers stay in the game, and totals at Mangaung Oval are usually on the low side.
The first-innings average over the last 33 T20 games at this ground is 142, and 131 in the second innings. A score of 135-150 looks like par on this surface. There is little to choose between batting first and chasing, 18 wins to 15 across the last 33 decided games.
The last 4 first-innings scores here, newest first: 106/8 (FS-W, lost), 76/2 (KNI, won), 135/4 (FS-W, lost), 199/4 (KNI, won). The pitch has played slower lately: the last 4 first innings averaged 129, below the ground average of 142. First-innings totals here have ranged from 66 to 199 in that time.
Toss call: there is not much in it, but most captains will still choose to chase.
