IRE vs WI, Bready Cricket Club in Bready, Northern Ireland, Pitch Report

The pitch at Bready Cricket Club in Northern Ireland offers a balanced contest between bat and ball. Fast bowlers tend to dominate early on, benefiting from swing and seam movement in overcast conditions. The surface is generally slow, making it challenging for batters to score freely, especially against spin. A first-innings score of around 150-160 is considered competitive, with teams often preferring to bowl first due to potential rain interruptions and the damp nature of the pitch.
