Pitch Report
The pitch at Newlands is batting-friendly, and spinners may also receive a lot of assistance. There will be plenty of spin and bounce to offer. Batters can look to play their shots after they are at ease. On this field, teams like to defend the total, and two of the last three games were won in the same way.
Weather Conditions
There will be clear skies over Cape Town on February 23, and we shall see early swing and seam on this surface. The pitch has played well, and batters have scored runs freely. It will be a high-pressure contest, and the side batting first shall look to have 170 on the board.
Newlands, Cape Town, has traditionally been a good surface to bowl with pace and bounce on the surface. The ball comes onto the bat nicely, making it good for the batters as they can play their strokes freely. Spinners haven't done well on this surface, with little margin for error.
