Launch report: “This is a central wicket with equal dimensions on all sides. There is a good amount of grass on the surface, it looks hard and allows the ball to slide better. It is a fresh surface, it should have a good carry and there will be a little bit on this for bowlers. But I still think this is first ground for bats, “Danny Morrison said.
