SOM vs ESS Today’s Dream11 Fantasy Team, Pitch Report :
The cooper associates county ground, Taunton is an amazing cricket ground for both bowlers and batters, especially for batters. The pitch is well-maintained, offering a good surface for both batting and bowling. However, the toss-winning captain must choose to ball first due to this pitch record and conditions. On the other hand, fast bowlers have really good opportunities, especially in the middle of the game as the ball often swings sharply, which makes it difficult for batters and can take some crucial wickets for the team.
