SOM vs KET Dream11 Pitch Report

The Cooper Associates County Ground in Taunton is a balanced cricket pitch that offers something for both batsmen and bowlers. The surface has produced above-average scores in recent matches, as batsmen have been able to trust the bounce and play their strokes freely. However, bowlers can also expect some seam and swing movement from the pitch, as pace bowlers have taken 90% of the wickets in the previous five games. The average score at the ground in the last five games is 161, suggesting that teams that win the toss may prefer to chase.

Here are some additional details about the pitch:

• The pitch is known for its even bounce, which allows batsmen to play their shots with confidence.
• The surface can offer some seam movement early on, which can be exploited by pace bowlers.
• The average score on the ground in T20 matches is 161.

Overall, the Cooper Associates County Ground is a balanced pitch that offers something for both batsmen and bowlers. Teams that win the toss may prefer to chase, but both teams will need to be prepared to adapt their tactics depending on the conditions on the day.
