Pitch Types

Damp/Sticky - Massively in favor of bowlers and an absolute nightmare to bat on, unless you're Victor Trumper.
:left:

Dusty - Plenty of turn on offer for spinners and a good place to bat for spin-savvy batsmen. Good pace bowlers are still likely to thrive.

Even - Provides an evenly balanced contest for all disciplines of the game.

Flat - A batsman-friendly pitch which provides little or no assistance to bowlers. Expect big totals.

Green - A lot of movement on offer early on, making it ideal for fast bowlers. Batting expected to become easier as the match progresses.

Hard - Ideal conditions for batting. Good deal of bounce on offer for fast bowlers as well. Could go either way.
:right:

Dry/Slow - Ideal for slow and spin bowlers as the name suggests. Sometimes quite difficult to bat on.
:down:

Poor - Uneven bounce and a huge amount of turn on offer for spinners. Expect a slow hard grind for very few runs.
