Lord’s, London
The pitch at the Lord’s is bowling-friendly. The batters will have to work hard for their runs. They will have to bide some time in the middle before they can start playing their strokes freely. The bowlers certainly have an upper hand at this venue. Teams like to bat first and put runs on the board after winning the toss. Chasing has been difficult at this venue. The pacers get the movement, thanks to the slope at the Lord’s. Overall, we have seen batters struggle here and it won’t be a surprise if the bowlers dominate the proceedings in the Vitality T20 Blast 2023.
