Kingsmead Pitch Report:
The pitch at Kingsmead Stadium is well-known for favoring bowlers, particularly seamers who gain extra movement from the moisture in the track. In contrast, spinners often struggle to find their rhythm here. However, batters who manage to settle can still score heavily. The team winning the toss will likely opt to bat first, looking to put up a strong total.
