The pitch at Ekana Cricket Stadium, in Lucknow, is considered to be a well-balanced surface. This surface generally favours a good spinning track, and the average first innings score is relatively mid-range, which is around 161 runs. Batsmen find it challenging to play strokes here. However, the pitch has been good for batters in the recent past. Moreover, it offers bounce and pace ‌, making it equally balanced for both batsmen and bowlers.
