    Wankhede Pitch Report:

    Traditionally a batting-friendly surface in the early stages, the pitch at Wankhede offers good bounce and carry, allowing batters to score runs comfortably, thanks to its red soil composition. However, as the match progresses, the wicket will deteriorate, providing turn and variable bounce that can be challenging for batters but advantageous for spinners. New Zealand has played only three Tests at Wankhede, winning just one, so they have some familiarity with the conditions. However, they will face an Indian side eager to end their losing streak.
