– Pitch Report
Carrara Oval or Metricon Stadium is one of the new cricket stadium in Australia. This venue has hosted only one international match which was a T20I game between Australia and South Africa on 17th November 2018.
In this ongoing BBL 10, this venue has already hosted one match. It was the match between Sydney Sixers and Melbourne Stars on latest Boxing Day, which was the 15th match of this tournament. It was the high-scoring match where Stars first managed to score 193/5 (20 overs). In reply, Sixers were losing the wickets at regular intervals. However, finally they were successful to chase down that target in 19.5 overs after losing 9 wickets.
But earlier, this venue mostly didn’t support big chasing. However, the early summer factor can lead the skippers to think about chasing in the upcoming game.
