The Wanderers Pitch Report

The Wanderers, known as the Bullring, offers a flat surface favouring batters with true bounce and a quick outfield, often producing high-scoring T20 games averaging 176 in first innings historically. Recent SA20 trends show lower totals around 140-150, assisting pacers early with seam movement before batting eases later. Clear weather expected; teams batting first have a slight edge.​
