SA vs IND 1st Test Dream11 Prediction: Pitch Report
The pitches of the SuperSport Park have been described by many as ideal for Test matches. The pitch assists pace and bounces as the ball comes onto the bat. Not seen as much of a haven for spin bowlers, pace bowlers who focus on bounce do take wickets here.
What makes the pitches of these stadiums ideal for Test matches is that they do not tend to deteriorate throughout the five days of a Test match and stay relatively the same.
