“77 metres straight, square boundaries 59 metres and 69 square. It does fly here. The story is about altitude. 12 sixes per game, that’s the average here. It’s quite dry. A bit of grass on that, it’s been very hot. There’ll be lots of runs on this, it looks pretty good. Expect a whole lot of runs and many sixes.”
