NWD vs NCH Pitch Report

Senwes Park, Potchefstroom

Across the last 11 T20 matches here, the side batting first has averaged 152, with chasing teams averaging 133. Anything in the 145-160 range should make a competitive total. Setting a target has been the way to win here: teams batting first have won 6 of the last 10 decided games.

The last 5 first-innings scores here, newest first: 147/6 (LMI, lost), 144/5 (NWD, lost), 149/6 (NWD, lost), 119 (SWD-W, lost), 163/2 (DOL-W, won). Recent games have followed the usual pattern, with the last 5 first innings averaging 144. First-innings totals here have ranged from 82 to 196 in that time.

Toss call: there is not much in it, but most captains will still choose to chase.
