REN vs STR: Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

The Docklands Stadium pitch in Melbourne offers help to both batters and bowlers. Fast bowlers may find some seam movement and tennis-ball bounce, especially with the new ball. Batsmen can capitalize on the consistent bounce to play their shots freely after negotiating the initial overs. Historically, teams chasing have had success here, so the toss-winning captain might prefer to field first.

The temperature is expected to be around 27-28°C, with no chance of rain.
