ICC wants batting friendly pitches for World Cup 2023
THE ICC WANTS Indian fans to be treated to large totals, thrilling chases and the finest batting performances from the best in the world during the ICC World Cup 2023.
The global cricket body has reportedly instructed the pitch curators at all the World Cup venues to create batting-friendly wickets.
Not only does this guarantee an extra dose of fours and sixes to delight the fans; batting pitches also mean less chances of teams being all-out early. This means longer matches, and more advertising revenue for the broadcasters.
With the upcoming World Cup set to become the most watched event in the history of world cricket, ICC's preparations are right on track to make the most of this moment when cricket will take the spotlight of the sporting world.
