"It's been like that for a long time, as long as I can remember," Samuel Badree, two-time T20 world champion, told ESPNcricinfo.Providence is a rare venue in T20 cricket: spinners bowl a slightly higher proportion of overs than seamers, bucking the global trend. In the last two years, spinners have conceded fewer than seven runs per over (6.96) in Guyana, while seamers have conceded 8.51. It should suit India's three spinners - Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja - while Jos Buttler is likely to use both Moeen Ali and Liam Livingstone, as well as his banker Adil Rashid."They were recently relaid for this T20 World Cup, but generally it has been low-scoring and favours the spinners," Badree said. "The last couple of CPLs have been more productive for the batters, so it has improved. But for this World Cup, the handful of games played down there, they favoured the spinners: low bounce, and some turn."Guyana is an unlikely "home away from home" for the Australian spinner Chris Green, but few are better placed to assess conditions at Providence. He has played 22 CPL games there, the joint second-most of any player, and has been on the winning side in 16 of those.Green, like Badree, has noticed a gradual improvement in the pitches. "Over the years, it's actually improved and been a higher-scoring ground in the CPL," he told ESPNcricinfo. "However, I think the day games stand out as being a bit abnormal now - probably more similar to the old-school Guyana wickets, very spin-friendly."Thursday's match is due to start at 10.30am, though weather forecasts suggest it may be delayed by showers in the morning. The only previous day game at Providence in this World Cup saw West Indies make hard work of chasing 137 against Papua New Guinea on a pitch with variable bounce.With a north-easterly crosswind blowing across the ground and no dew, the ball is unlikely to come onto the bat as it might under lights. "Definitely, I'd think the day games would be more favourable to the spinners," Badree said. "Kuldeep, Axar and Adil Rashid should all come into the equation."Green believes that batters should go hard in the powerplay, knowing that it will be the best time to bat. "Sometimes you have to over-attack the powerplay with the bat, with the field up… Naturally, that goes one of two ways, depending on the wicket, the bowling and the luck. But through the middle, it's pretty hard going."At the back end, if you have a platform, you can push up to an above-par total and then it's pretty tough to chase down. If you're batting second, it's much the same: try to over-attack, get ahead of the game, force the opposition to chase the game and force errors on a tough wicket. It doesn't really get easier in the daytime as the dew doesn't really come in."Daren Ganga, the former West Indies captain, suggests that 160 could be a par score. "That pitch is going to have an even covering of root structure," he told ESPNcricinfo. "If anything, it'll have a lowish bounce: in Trinidad, you might get some steep bounce, but in Guyana, it'll be lower."T20 World Cup stats:Matches: 5 Average first-innings score: 146 Average runs per over: 6.20 Defending wins: 3 Chasing wins: 2All T20I stats since July 2021:Matches: 9 (excluding two no-results) Average first-innings score: 151 Average runs per over: 7.18 Defending wins: 4 Chasing wins: 5 France Regions Map RawImage 1400px Fema Regions Map 2024CongressMap.svg Cropped Figure 1 ?w=1024 RrPRr Thumbnail ?w=800 31602 2024 Pres Ratings 1 X Carte France 13 Regions Hq Maxresdefault Dml6mygakl561 2024 Presidential Election Calendar 1140x855 Voter Id Required J59o8gq Images 67 ICAO Regions 2012 ?itok=b0MmunlF D934f1 714d1e28b78343b0afa03f94154c7920~mv2 1OnWF6JuqL 0VXyfq2H62dby Nbc5WeZxD9DFvtenLI ?auto=webp&s=84746f6453610cf38e68674788c0f476651e5527 Territory Map February 2023 White Text Lr 1200px Frelland 2023 Election Map B7qflvnucqd61 Carte Grise Par Region En France 768x837 Map Of The MENA Region Including The Countries That Are Covered In This Review MENA FLASHIMAGE Azure Regions Zone Vacances Scolaire France 2023 Map ?ssl=1 Membership 2021 Regions Cropped Region Map 1 Ql7Ry Ieuhz7q13j831
