DER vs GLA Pitch Report

Derby is a good traditional pitch with some movement with the new ball and batters will find run scoring easy in the match. We are expect the runs to be in the range of 350-450 runs in the match. 

Toss: To Bat

Both teams will look to bat first in this match as the pitch will aid the batters in the first 2-3 days of the match and slows down as the match progresses.
