ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium Pitch Report

The surface at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam usually appears to be batting-friendly. However, the pitch does offer some assistance to the spinners as the game progresses, if there is no dew. The venue last hosted a women's game in 2014, but recent IPL matches have seen multiple 200+ scores per innings, so decent totals can be hoped for in the IND-W vs SA-W game.
