Pitch report by Danny Morrison: The grass covering is even. The boundary dimensions are: 60m square boundary to one side, 70m to the other. 73m hit down the ground. You have to bowl full here to get assistance. You need more than 150 here to have a chance in the game.
Colin Munro: Would have bowled first too. ADKR are a good side and we need to bat well. Our attitude on the field in the last game was good and if we keep maintaining that, we will do well.
Sunil Narine: The idea is to restrict them to a low total and then chase it down. The surface looks good and should remain the same throughout.
