Saint Lucia Kings vs St Kitts And Nevis Patriots CPL 2024, 14th Match Pitch Report
The Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in Gros Islet, St Lucia, is traditionally known for offering a balanced surface, providing opportunities for both batsmen and bowlers. The pitch typically starts slow, but as the game progresses, spinners tend to get more assistance due to the rough patches that develop on the surface. Batters who can settle in during the powerplay will find scoring easier, especially during the middle overs. However, they must watch out for any variable bounce.
Pace bowlers can expect some movement early on, particularly with the new ball, while spinners will be more effective as the game progresses. This ground also tends to favor chasing teams in night games, as dew may play a role in making it harder for bowlers to grip the ball later in the match.
Overall, a score around 180 would be competitive, but anything above 190 could put pressure on the chasing side. Teams winning the toss may prefer to field first and take advantage of the conditions under lights.
