Narendra Modi Stadium Pitch Report
The surface on the Narendra Modi Stadium Ahmedabad is expected to be a batting-friendly track with a red base that offers real bounce and carrying properties. Historically, this venue has favored hitters who can take advantage of the hard new ball during the power play. However, Ahmedabad experienced an extreme heat wave with temperatures hovering around freezing point 41°C During the day it can cause the pitch to dry out and provide some grip for spinners Rashid Khan And Varun Chakaravarthy over the course of the game.
