Pitch Report

The pitch at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi, is traditionally known to be a batting-friendly surface. The flat and firm nature of the wicket early in the match allows batters to play their shots freely and score good runs. However, as the game progresses, spinners can get some assistance in the middle overs. The fast outfield and relatively short boundaries definitely provide scoring opportunities to batters. The average first-innings score at this venue stands at around 173, indicating the potential for a high-scoring contest.
