Oakland Coliseum Pitch Report
The surface at the Oakland Coliseum generally provides good bounce and pace early on, assisting fast bowlers. However, it flattens out as the game progresses, making it a good batting wicket under the lights.
Chasing sides have found more success here due to the even bounce and quick outfield. Expect a first innings score of around 170–180.
