T20 World Cup: India Fortunate That Barbados Pitch Will Be Too Good For The Clash Against Afghanistan, Says Manjrekar
T20 World Cup: Former batter Sanjay Manjrekar believes the pitch at the Kensington Oval in Barbados will make India fortunate in playing there during the Super Eight clash of the 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup against Afghanistan, citing it being batting friendly instead of providing slow turn.
The pitches at Barbados have offered batters few joys in run-making in the World Cup, with Australia being the only team to cross the 200-run mark here. Teams winning the toss have chosen to field first in all five games at the Kensington Oval for this T20 World Cup.
"India is fortunate that they're playing Afghanistan in Barbados where the pitch is going to be good, it's been one of the best batting pitches and that's where Afghanistan will be a little weak for India. If the pitch was a little tricky, slow-turning kind of pitch, then Afghanistan could have been more difficult to beat," said Manjrekar on the ‘Caught & Bold’ show on Disney+ Hotstar.
