R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo Pitch Report

Batting first has generally proven to be the more rewarding option at the R. Premadasa Stadium. However, with rain in the forecast, teams might look to chase, especially if the DLS method comes into play. If weather interruptions stay away, spinners are expected to play a key role, as the surface tends to offer good grip and turn as the game progresses.
