PITCH REPORT – Ajit Agarkar is near the deck to inform us about the deck. He says there are some brown spots on the deck but it will get better with the grass present on the deck. Also says that the batters will have fun at this venue, unlike the other venues where they had to work hard. Wonder what changes both sides will make, keeping in mind the behaviour of this deck.
