Fantasy Tips
Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne Pitch Report:
This wicket was favouring the pacers more in the World Cup matches and most probably pacers will have extra advantage in the this match also. This pitch has big boundaries and due to that batters have to focus on playing grounded shots more for scoring runs here. Spinners generally do not get much support from the pitch but large dimensions will surely help A Rashid and A Zampa. You can expect scores in the vicinity of 260 in this match.
