The pitch at Dr DY Patil Sports Academy, Mumbai, traditionally favors batting, offering consistent bounce and pace ideal for aggressive shot-making. Batters will likely enjoy the surface, particularly in the initial stages, as the true bounce facilitates fluent stroke play, encouraging high-scoring totals. Pace bowlers may benefit from slight assistance early in the innings, especially with the new ball under lights. However, spinners might come into play as the match progresses, finding grip and some turn, which could create challenges for batters. Teams batting first will aim to set a challenging total of approximately 160-180 runs, putting pressure on the chasing side.
