Pitch Report - Natalie Germanos and Mithali Raj are at the pitch side. They inform that it’s a fresh wicket and the game will be played on pitch number 5. They further add that the square boundaries are 58 and 51 meters while down the ground it is 65 meters. They mention that today's surface is red soil which is pretty hard and there is a fair bit of grass covering on it. They add that the condition will get better as the evening progresses and the seamers will get a lot more movement but all in all, it is a good wicket to bat.  180 is possible provided the batters play through the line and they reckon that the pitch is a batting paradise.

Deepti Sharma, the UP skipper says that they wanted to bowl first as well. Adds that the wicket looks a bit different today and it may help the spinners.
