Sabina Park Pitch Report:

Sabina Park features a balanced pitch that benefits both batters and bowlers. Early in the innings, the new ball tends to move and seam, providing an advantage to seamers. As the ball ages, spinners become more effective. Batters find it easier to score runs as the match progresses, making chasing often a preferred option on this wicket.
