Run will rain on the pitch
The pitch of the Wankhede Stadium made of red clay has always been helpful for the batsmen. There is a similar bounce on the pitch, due to which the ball comes on the bat well. For this reason, most matches are high scoring here. Fast bowlers also get help in the beginning. Dew has seen an important role in the last few matches. In such a situation, the captains choose bowling first.
