Pitch Report according to previous Records:
The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad features a generally batting-friendly pitch with consistent bounce, particularly on its red-soil tracks. While high scores above 180 are common, the large boundaries assist bowlers, especially with night-time dew often aiding the team chasing.
Official Live Pitch Report:
We look short-sided today with the grounds I mentioned, 64 metres out to my left, 70 metres wide, 74 straight back over the bowler's head. Sunny G, the legend, joins me. Sunny, we're on pitch 5 today. What do you see? Well, I see a fair bit of grass on the surface, which is very good as far as the seam bowlers are concerned, and both teams have got really top-quality new ball users. So I think we'll be able to see a little bit of movement there. You'll be able to see maybe the odd play and miss, but what this grass will also do is help the ball to come onto the bat quite nicely. And that is what batters are looking for. Batters are also standing deep in the crease to be able to make even the good length ball into the slot ball. So, yes, I think runs are on offer, but again, like you said, this is not exactly a small ground here. Yes, one side might be a little bit smaller, but I see plenty of runs here. Spinners, finger spinners in particular, might struggle a little bit, but the wrist spinner can get the ball to turn everywhere. But I still believe that this is a pitch good enough for a 190-plus score today. Two games already on this surface this year where PBKS 163 wasn't enough. 199 was already enough for the Mumbai Indians. Good surface, should be a belting game. - Eoin Morgan, Sunil Gavaskar.
