THE WANDERERS STADIUM, JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA

THE WANDERERS STADIUM (JOHANNESBURG)

The Imperial Wanderers Stadium (affectionately known as the Bullring due to its intimidating atmosphere) is a stadium situated just south of Sandton in Illovo, Johannesburg in Gauteng Province, South Africa. Test, One Day and First-class cricket matches are played here. It is also the home ground for the Highveld Lions, formerly known as Gauteng (Transvaal). The stadium has a seating capacity of 34,000 and was built in 1956 to replace the Old Wanderers Stadium.

THE WANDERERS STADIUM (JOHANNESBURG)Pitch Report

The Wanderers Stadium Johannesburg pitch report is very crucial. The pitch at The Wanderers Stadium could help bowlers more than the batters. Scoring big at this venue could be challenging.

THE WANDERERS STADIUM (JOHANNESBURG)Pitch Report

Test Match Pitch Report and Toss Factor:

The Old Wanderers first hosted Test cricket in 1896, when South Africa faced England and George Lohmann claimed 9 for 28 in South Africa's first innings to help the English to a convincing innings victory. The ground is well suited for the players with brilliant lighting, quick outfields and a great pitch that favours both the batsman and the bowlers. At this ground 12 test matches played in the last 10 years out of which 7 matches won by the team batting first and 4 by the team batting second and 1 match was drawn. 

Here are the last test matches average scores of all Innings at WANDERERS STADIUM grounds:

Test Matches 1st Innings Average Score – 296 runs

Test Matches 2nd Innings Average Score – 217 runs

Test Matches 3rd Innings Average Score – 270 Runs

Test Matches 4th Innings Average Score – 206 runs

ODI Match Pitch Report and Toss Factor:

In all the last five ODIs at this venue, only the chasing teams managed to achieve victories (including one rain-curtailed chasing) while the first batting teams always failed to score at least 300 runs. This venue is famous for chasing the world-record ODI target of 435 runs by the hosts’ Proteas against Australia on 12th March 2006. But since then, there is only one more successful 300+ ODI chasing at this venue.  As of now the ground has witnessed 8 matches out of which 4 matches won by the team batting first and 4 matches won by the team chasing.

Here are last 5 ODI matches average scores of both Innings at WANDERERS grounds:

ODI Matches 1st Innings Average Score – 282 runs

ODI Matches 2nd Innings Average Score – 245 runs

THE WANDERERS STADIUM (JOHANNESBURG)Pitch Report

T20I Match Pitch Report and Toss Factor:

The pitch is favourable for batting, the batsman does enjoy batting on the flat pitch at the Wanderer’s Ground. The captain whoever won the toss preferred to bat first. The ground hasn’t witnessed much matches in the last years but chasing here at this venue seemed difficult in the last encounters between the teams.

Here are the last 5 T20I matches average scores of both Innings at WANDERERS grounds:

T20I Matches 1st Innings Average Score – 188 runs

T20I Matches 2nd Innings Average Score – 154 runs

LAST 10 YEARS OUTCOME

SA20 Match Pitch Report and Toss Factor:

As seen in the other formats the pitch is considered good for batting in the league matches too, the batsman looks to secure good runs on the board taking the benefits from the powerplay overs. As of now only 12 SA20 Matches held at this ground where the team batting first has won 7 and team chasing has won 4 and 1 match was abandoned.

Here are the last 5 T20I matches average scores of both Innings at WANDERERS grounds:

SA20 Matches 1st Innings Average Score – 154 runs

SA20 Matches 2nd Innings Average Score – 102 runs
