Ground reality and pitch

Also known as the'Bullring', Wanderers is home to to the Highveld Lions. Wanderers goes down is history as hosting one of greatest ODI matches when South Africa chased down a colossal target of 434 runs set by Australia. Known as a typical South African pitch, Wanderers posts a hard wicket providing assistance to the seamers. The bounce is also favoured by the batsmen because the ball comes on to the bat quicker, enabling better strokes.
