The pitch at SuperSport Park, Centurion, is known for being one of the most batting-friendly surfaces in T20 internationals. It offers true pace and good bounce, allowing batters to play their shots with confidence once they get set. 

Fast bowlers can extract some seam movement and carry with the new ball, making the early overs slightly challenging, but the assistance fades quickly. As the ball softens, scoring becomes easier, aided by the high altitude that helps shots travel further. 

Spinners usually struggle due to minimal turn. Chasing sides often enjoy success here, with 180-plus considered a strong total.
