DY

Stadium
Pitch
Report

The
wickets
at
the
venue
produced
some
high-scoring
matches
in
IPL
2022
and
the
recent
women’s
international
matches.
So,
expect
the
pitch
to
be
batting
friendly
with
some
assistance
for
slower
bowlers.
As
the
stadium
is
a
little
far
away
from
the
coastal
area,
there
is
little
chance
of
dew.
Teams
chasing
will
be
at
advantage
at
the
venue.
