St. George's Park Pitch Report
The St. George's Park is an unused track for a while. The pitch has historically supported pacers, who would get good bounce from the surface. The batters can get going once they hold off the new-ball pressure.
Spinners get little to no help from the surface. They would have to be on-the-money with their line and length to have any success.
