LEI vs SOM Pitch Report

Grace Road, Leicester

Grace Road hosts this First Class match, and reading the surface early will matter.

The average first-innings score here is 320.

4 recent first-class games here produced 2 results and 2 draws, with the side batting first winning 1 of them. No side has chased successfully in the fourth innings in those games, a sign the pitch wears and gets harder to bat on.
