India vs England: Pitch Report From the early pictures, we can suggest that the Headingley pitch is going to be a green one. It is known for assisting seam and swing bowlers, especially in the first two days. Overcast conditions could further enhance movement off the seam. Batters will need to apply themselves early, but the pitch tends to flatten out slightly from Day 3 onwards. Spinners might come into play later in the match as footmarks develop. Overall, while rain may affect Day 2, the rest of the Test should see plenty of action. Game On Season 1 kicks off with Sakshi Malik's inspiring story. Watch Episode 1 here
