Pitch Report according to previous Records:
The pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad is generally a batter-friendly surface that offers true, consistent bounce, especially when using red soil tracks. Fast bowlers receive early swing and carry, while spinners become more effective in the middle overs as the game progresses.
Official Live Pitch Report:
Ian Bishop and Aaron Finch: "We are all geared up for this evening's game, the big final after so many weeks of action here in Ahmedabad. And the surface that we're standing on is pitch number 6. It's equidistant, both the square boundaries, just about 66 meters, so there's no real advantage for hitting or defending one side. It's a mixed soil wicket, a mixture of red and black soil. I think that makes it a very, very good batting wicket first up. The first thing I notice when I come and look at it is that it's very even and very flat. That doesn't necessarily mean that it's going to be an absolute belter. I think that this might be slightly on the slower side. I wouldn't expect it to spin just with that soil composition. There are some great quicks in both sides. How would they go about bowling on this surface? Well, I don't expect to see anything different from what we've seen across the season actually. A high percentage of deliveries in that good length, 6 to 8 meters. And then the preference of those hit-the-deck bowlers, I wouldn't put Bhuvi in there, is to pull the length back just a touch and bang away on a good length or short of a good length. And if you win the toss, I think you're chasing later on. It gets better and better."
