Providence Stadium Pitch Report Ahead of NZ vs AFG
The last time West Indies chased down 137 for 5 wickets fell on this pitch. Despite the small target of 136, WI batters struggled to score on Providence. This shows the bowling dominant side of the pitch.
The Providence pitch is known for its balanced nature but in recent T20 games, low-scoring matches have been recorded. Due to the slow pitch batters struggled to hit the boundaries which shows pitch favors bowlers more than batters. Apart from Afghanistan, not a single has scored more than 180 runs on this pitch. Uganda lost that match and scored 58 runs in 16 overs.
