????️ Lord’s Pitch Guide: What Fantasy Players Must Know
The pitch at Lord’s isn’t like any other ground. The unique slope adds a twist to the game. Seam bowlers benefit from it, while batters often struggle early on.
Here’s a breakdown of how the pitch behaves:
- Day 1: Movement for seamers—swing, seam, and bounce.
- Day 2–3: Eases out a bit—batting becomes more comfortable.
- Day 4–5: Spinners might get some help, especially from footmarks.
Now, how does this help you as a fantasy player? Simple. Pick pacers early, back batters for Day 2 and 3, and keep one spinner in the squad for the late innings.
