SL vs ENG Today’s 1st T20I Match, Pitch Report :

At Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Kandy for today’s 1st T20I between Sri Lanka and England, the pitch is expected to be a fairly balanced yet batting-friendly surface — offering good bounce and true pace once the ball gets set, making stroke-play rewarding under lights. Early on, pacers might get some movement with the new ball, but as the game progresses, it tends to flatten out and favour batters with gaps to find, while spinners could come into play in the middle overs as the wicket slightly slows. Overall, this is a competitive track where 160+ totals are well within reach, promising an exciting high-scoring encounter under night conditions.
