Wankhede Stadium Mumbai Pitch Report For World Cup 2023:

Wankhede Stadium of Mumbai is a frontline venue for all things Cricket in India. The all-popular Cricket stadium near Mumbai’s Marine Line hosts numerous International, Domestic, and Indian Premier League affairs throughout the year. The venue features a surface made from the local red-soil which heavily favours the batters.

Batters are bound to dictate the terms during the World Cup 2023 fixtures in Mumbai. Moreover, with the dew factor expected to play a part in the latter part of the matches, run chases will likely become substantially easier. Teams will fancy chasing down any total on the board regardless of the quality of the opposing side’s bowling.
