D.Y Patil Sports Academy Pitch Report – Batting or Bowling?
The D.Y Patil Sports Academy Ground in Navi Mumbai is set to host the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 semi-final between Australia Women and India Women. Known for its balanced pitch, the venue offers something for both batters and bowlers.
Batters can enjoy the flat surface with good pace and bounce, while boundaries are not too big, making scoring easier. Fast bowlers can extract early swing with the new ball, and spinners can turn matches in the middle overs.
Previous matches at the ground have seen high scores, like India Women’s 340, showing its batting-friendly nature. However, bowlers have also made a difference, depending on conditions. Expect an exciting contest where both batters and bowlers can shine.
