Daren Sammy Stadium St Lucia Pitch Report

It is a sporting wicket as the batters and the bowlers will equally enjoy their time in the middle. The surface will have some bounce for the pacers initially but the slowishness in the surface will also bring the spinners into the game. Meanwhile, there are no demons for the batters in the wicket either as they can make full use of the hard surface on offer.

Is Daren Sammy Stadium a batting or a bowling pitch?

While both batters and bowlers will get equal opportunity to dominate at this wicket, the balance is still tilted in the favor of the batters here. Hence, it is more of a batting wicket.
