SOB vs OVI: Pitch Report

The Rose Bowl in Southampton has been a place with an even playing field historically. Batters can put up big runs after they get going, but bowlers, especially fast bowlers, will find some movement for their delivery early on. So a balanced battle between bat and ball is expected here, with lower totals often being the preferred option.
