Pallekele International Cricket Stadium Pitch Report

The Pallekele Stadium pitch is known for its batting-friendly nature, favouring the batters who often dominate the game. The surface doesn’t offer much assistance to pacers, making it easier for batsmen to find their rhythm and score big runs once they settle in. As the matches move forward, the pitch at Pallekele International Stadium gradually dries up and becomes more favourable for spinners. Considering the impressive spin options available to both teams, it wouldn’t be surprising to witness game-changing performances from the talented spin department.

Last result at the venue (Feb 9, 2024)

Sri Lanka – 381/3 (Pacers – 2w, Spinners – 1w)

Afghanistan – 339/6 (Pacers – 6w, Spinners – 0w)

Sri Lanka won by 42 runs.
