NEW DELHI: The Mirpur pitch, which was the venue for the second and final Test match between Bangladesh and New Zealand, has been given a demerit point by the International Cricket Council (ICC) due to its unsatisfactory rating.
In the assessment by ICC match referee David Boon, concerns were raised about the pitch potentially being underprepared. He noted issues with the deliveries from spin bowlers, mentioning that they often went over the batter's shoulder when playing forward and occasionally stayed very low.
