Manchester Pitch Report
The Manchester wicket has slowed down in the last few years. There isn’t as much bounce available on the wicket — but if it rains, that might change a bit. There will be assistance on offer for pacers. Surprisingly, two spinners could be a great ploy. In short, batting might just be the most difficult here, out of all the three previous venues.
