The pitch at Perth is the fastest in the world. The pace and bounce of the pitch is bound to assist the fast bowlers. It is a typical Aussie wicket which would give the cliched “chin music.” As the innings progresses the pitch becomes flatter and the batters start to have the hold of the game. The par score is expected to be around 160-170 runs.
England (208/6 in 20 overs) beat Australia(200/9 in 20 overs) by 8 runs.
