Civil Service Cricket Club, Belfast Pitch Report

The pitch of the Civil Services Cricket Club is generally considered beneficial for the batsmen. Initially this pitch is a bit sharp, which helps the bowlers, but as the match progresses, it slows down.

There is light grass on the pitch and the outer field is quite fast, so that the ball can easily cross the boundary. Apart from this, due to the boundary of the field being small, the batsmen make it easier to make a big score.

In the initial overs, the batsmen get a good bounce from the pitch, which makes them feel comfortable playing the shot. However, with the new ball, fast bowlers also get the benefit of swing and speed in the beginning, which can create difficulties for the batsmen.

During the powerplay, the batsmen have to play carefully, but once the ball starts getting old, it becomes easy to score on the pitch. Sometimes high scoring matches are seen on this ground, sometimes there can be a low scoring match, that is, this pitch can be considered balanced.
