AUS vs WI 2022: Perth Stadium, Perth Pitch Report And Weather Conditions

Australia and West Indies were involved in a three-match T20I series just before the 2022 T20 World Cup. Now, the teams will clash against each other in a two-match Test series. The first game will start on November 30th at the Perth Stadium. Here, we look at the pitch report of Perth Stadium and the weather conditions in Perth for AUS vs WI 2022.

Australia has not played Test cricket for a while now. Next year, the Ashes is scheduled to happen. The core of the team remains the same but there is scope for improvement. Also, an important series against India is also lined up shortly. Winning against West Indies would help Australia’s momentum.

On the other hand, it is a completely different scenario for West Indies. The team has been in poor touch for a while now. Phil Simmons’ last assignment as the Head Coach will be this tournament. The West Indian squad will want seniors such as Jason Holder to step up against the mighty Aussies.
