The Adelaide Oval pitch is considered to be helpful for batsmen. The average score of the first innings is 158 runs, but the competitive score will be 180+ runs. Fast bowlers may get some swing in the initial overs, but this pitch is not very helpful for spinners. The short boundaries prove to be a bonus for the batsmen. Whichever captain wins the toss, he should bowl first. Chasing runs is considered easy on this ground.
