Brian Lara Stadium Pitch Report

The surface is on the slower side and the wicket is not batting-friendly. The ball is expected to stop to the batters and the bowlers will enjoy the conditions in the middle. Furthermore, it is a night game; hence, the pacers will get seam movement off the surface with the new ball.
In 3 matches of the T20 World Cup 2024 here, the average score batting first is 94.66.
Meanwhile, the team batting first has won 1 match and the team chasing has won 2 games.
