The drop-in pitch at the Nassau Cricket Stadium has received a lot of flak for its variable bounce and sluggish nature. Batting has been quite difficult and bowlers have found a lot of assistance. Batters will have to prepared to spend some time in the middle and grind hard for their runs. Chasing has yielded better results at this venue in the T20 World Cup 2024.

Probable Top Performers from SA vs BAN
Probable best batter: Tristan Stubbs
The young wicketkeeper-batter Tristan Stubbs came into the tournament on the back of a stellar IPL season, where he scored 378 runs in 14 matches at an average of 54 and a strike rate of 190.91. Here, the pitches have not been as good for batting as in the IPL but Stubbs has shown the eagerness to spend time in the middle and face the adverse conditions head-on. This could hold him in good stead on the difficult New York pitch.
Probable best bowler: Mustafizur Rahman
The cunning left-arm seamer Mustafizur Rahman also had an impressive IPL season, bagging 14 wickets in nine matches. He bowled really well against Sri Lanka in the opening game and finished with figures of 3/17 in his four overs. The Fizz will enjoy bowling on the New York track, where his cutters could be way more lethal than they already are.
