Brian Lara Stadium Pitch Report
The surface at the Brian Lara Stadium has been supportive for the batters and is considerably a high-scoring pitch. Especially, in the first innings, the Pitch is like a paradise for the batters as the team batting first has won 4 matches out of the total of 7 matches played here. The highest team total here has been 267/3 scored by England last year against the hosts West Indies.
So, the captain winning the toss will look ahead to bat first to put the opponent in a difficult run chase.
