MSG vs SUL Pitch Report – Kennington Oval, London
This season, the Kennington Oval has become one of the outstanding batting venues on The Hundred circuit, providing true bounce and power for the quicks up front as well as good value for shots down the line as the ball gets older. Totals exceeding 150 have been common at the field this year, and with the competition's two most in-form top ranks on display, expect batters to look to cash early rather than build an innings.
