Brabourne Stadium Pitch Report and Records, Mumbai

Covers 28 international matches at this ground from Oct 2006 to Dec 2022.

Is the Brabourne Stadium pitch report a story about men or women? Mostly women: 20 of the 28 internationals at this Mumbai ground, from Oct 2006 to Dec 2022, were women’s ODIs and T20Is.

The men have played 6 ODIs, a single T20I and one Test here. The women’s games came in two bursts, 10 ODIs between 31 Jan and 17 Feb 2013 and 10 T20Is from Mar 2018 to Dec 2022. The latest match was Australia’s 54-run T20I win over India on 20 Dec 2022.

Brabourne Pitch: Batting or Bowling?

Women’s T20Is give the clearest recent evidence, and they point to batting. Teams batting first average 165 and chasers 149. England chased 199 against India on 25 Mar 2018, the highest successful chase, and results split 5 wins each way.

The 2013 women’s ODIs leaned towards the side batting first, which won 7 of 10 and averaged 231 to the chasers’ 186.

The men’s ODIs, mostly from Oct and Nov 2006, were lower scoring. Second innings averaged just 147 and Sri Lanka skittled West Indies for 80; India’s 377/5 against West Indies in Oct 2018 is the outlier. The lone Test, in Dec 2009, ran 393, then 726, then 309, with no fourth innings needed.
