Pitch Report and Details
The Old Trafford pitch is conducive to batting. The teams batting first typically go on to score enormous totals; the average first innings total of 335 runs supports this. The pitch is still batting-friendly after five days, but it does have a good bounce that pacers may take advantage of. The pitch has recently shown to be advantageous for spinners, so the spin overs may also be an important aspect of the game.
