Marvel Stadium Pitch Report:

Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium offers an intense battle between the bat and the bowl. There are some initial movements in the seam and bounce on the pitch for the pacers which can trouble the batters, but once they adjust to the conditions scoring runs becomes easy for the batters. Teams who win the toss usually prefer to bowl first on this ground in a bid to take advantage of the first aid the pitch provides to the pacers.
