Newlands Cricket Ground Report:

Historically, the pitch at Newlands Cricket Ground has supported spin bowling thanks to the fact that many South Africans hail from the Western Province, the home of this picturesque cricket ground. However, the recent Test encounter between India and South Africa at this ground proved to be a paradise for the pacers. Therefore, while the pitch is generally expected to support slow bowling, a surprising turnaround is expected.
