Pitch report

Lord’s usually offers a balanced contest. Good bounce and carry reward batters once they are set, while seamers can get swing and seam with the new ball in English conditions. The surface tends to improve for batting as the innings goes on, and the quick outfield rewards clean hitting. Spinners can be useful in the middle overs by varying pace. Totals of 160–175 are generally competitive in T20 cricket here.
