PAK vs SA Pitch Report:

The pitch at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore, is known for being one of the most batting-friendly surfaces in Pakistan. It offers true bounce and carry, allowing batters to play their shots freely and score quickly. Fast bowlers may get some assistance early on with the new ball, but the movement doesn’t last long. As the innings progresses, the surface becomes even better for batting, while spinners can find some grip and turn during the later stages, especially if the pitch dries out. The outfield is quick, rewarding well-timed strokes and making boundary scoring easier. In T20 matches, scores in the range of 170–190 are quite common, while in ODIs, totals around 300 are competitive. Teams winning the toss often prefer to bat first to capitalize on the fresh surface, though dew under lights can sometimes make chasing slightly easier. Overall, fans can expect high-scoring contests and plenty of entertainment at this venue.
