The historic Kensington Oval will host the second match of the tournament on Tuesday. This venue enjoys fame not only across the Caribbean but also around the globe. This ground has witnessed some of the most memorable moments in the history of cricket; the final of the ODI World Cup 2007 and the T20 World Cup 2010 were held here. However, it is not an easy place for batsmen to score runs.
The average first-innings total is 138. The pitch at this stadium usually offers help to seam bowlers who can exploit early movement off it. This was demonstrated during Namibia’s recent encounter with Oman where 11 wickets fell to seamers out of 16 taken overall thus resulting in both teams being bowled out for 109 runs each.
