IND vs AFG: Pitch Report
The Mohali pitch is expected to provide a well-balanced playing surface, benefiting both batsmen and bowlers. Pacers may find early assistance from the track, and spinners are likely to maintain their impact throughout the match. Additionally, the influence of dew, a significant factor in the game due to the severe winter conditions in the Northern part of India, will play a crucial role. However, overall, the pitch is expected to be batting-friendly, suitable for a T20 game.
