Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium Pitch Report
Rawalpindi has been known to produce high-scoring encounters in the past and it will not be any different in the early stages of PSL 2025. The captain winning the toss will want to bowl first, as there could be a bit of dew later in the game. Historically, the ground has helped the team batting second, with run scoring becoming easy. One can expect the seamers to get good carry early in the game and the batters will have to make use of the powerplay overs. Spinners could come into the game once the ball gets old and the pitch begins to die down.
