W.A.C.A. Ground Pitch Report
The W.A.C.A. Ground in Perth features one of the quickest and bounciest pitches globally, offering consistent pace and extra bounce that favours fast bowlers, especially with afternoon sea breezes aiding seam movement. In WBBL matches, it has hosted 36 games with teams batting second winning 21 times, reflecting a balanced yet bowler-friendly surface where the average first innings score hovers around 140. Recent outings, like Perth Scorchers’ low-scoring home games, underline low totals (under 150 common), making disciplined batting crucial amid skiddy bounce and a quick outfield. Pacers could dominate tomorrow’s clash, while spinners may find grip later. Expect a medium-scoring contest tilting towards bowlers.
