Lord’s Cricket Ground Pitch Report:
The Lord’s pitch usually has something for both batsmen and bowlers. It’s one of the few grounds in England where both can do well. Fast bowlers will get some seam movement and can use the new ball as well as the slope at Lord’s. But batsmen can take advantage of the pace and bounce once they get used to playing there. Spinners will get some turn as the pitch dries out as the game goes on. Unless it’s a really dry pitch, expect the team that wins the toss to bowl first.
