India vs England 5th T20I Pitch Report
The pitch at the Wankhede Stadium is traditionally conducive for batting. In T20Is, the average first-innings total of 191 runs has been seen across eight matches. The pitch tends to assist pacers early on, with swing and seam movement making life difficult for batters in the powerplay.
It must be added that once the ball settles, batters can make the most of the short boundaries and quick outfield.
Conventional wisdom dictates that teams winning the toss could opt to chase, considering the history of successful run-chases at this venue.
