Sabina Park Pitch Report:

Sabina Park in Kingston, Jamaica, typically offers a lively pitch with plenty of bounce and pace in the early stages, giving fast bowlers the edge at the start of the match. As play progresses, the surface tends to become more favourable for batting, especially in T20 cricket, allowing batters to play their shots more freely. Spinners can find some assistance as the game wears on, but the ground’s short boundaries and generally high-scoring nature work in favour of aggressive stroke-makers. The quick outfield at Sabina Park further rewards attacking play. Given the possibility of dew and the venue’s reputation for thrilling second-innings run chases, captains who win the toss might prefer to bowl first.
