VCA Stadium Pitch Report for India vs Australia 1st Test
The pitch at VCA Stadium for the first Test between India and Australia will be a rank turner, which will aid spinners. Due to the ball of spinners expected to come inside to the left-handers from the dry rough, left-handers will likely struggle to score on this pitch. On this pitch, anything over 200 runs in the first inning will be a very competitive score. The second and third innings of India’s first Test match against Australia will be much easier for the batters than the first and fourth innings of this Test match.
