Adelaide Oval is widely regarded as a paradise for batters in the BBL, thanks to its even bounce and reliable pace that reward free-flowing stroke play. That said, the ground is not without its tests. Under lights, the new ball can move through the air and off the seam, giving fast bowlers a chance to strike early. As the match progresses, the surface tends to slow slightly in the middle overs, bringing spinners and bowlers with smart variations into the contest.
