SF vs WAS Major League Cricket 2025 Weather & Pitch Report

Oakland Coliseum, California Pitch Report

Oakland Coliseum, California has a balanced pitch that favors both batters and bowlers. Along with it, the Pacers can get some early movement with the new ball. The surface allows batters to play their shots freely as the game progresses so expect a good score here. Due to the potential for dew to become a factor later in the game, the captain winning the toss might prefer to bowl first to capitalize on the conditions. The presence of grass on the pitch is likely to benefit pacers and as the game progresses and the ball gets older it’s gonna help batsmen. However, chasing on this ground has been the favorable option on this ground. Looking at the average first score, the team batting second has a higher chance of winning the game.
