A prediction, not a certainty. For fun and insight, not betting.
Par is the recent average first-innings score in the format, adjusted for how this ground and its country have played, leaning on the wider average when a ground has few matches. “Usually” is the middle half of first innings. Only full first innings count (all out or the full overs; no rain-shortened games).

From every completed match here in our archive. Averages leave out no-results and rain-adjusted (DLS) games; a format is shown only with at least five matches. Batting first is the side that batted in the first innings. Pitches change from season to season, so treat these as a long-run guide.
