IND vs AUS: Pitch Report

India and Australia clashed in a T20I at this venue in 2019, and on that occasion, the visiting side emerged victorious. The ground dimensions, particularly the square of the wicket, are not very expansive. While the pitch is generally favorable for batting, it tends to offer more assistance to spinners in the second innings. Considering the dew factor, the captain winning the toss might opt to bowl first. Over the last 10 matches at the venue, the average score for the team batting first is 132. The stadium's trend suggests that chasing is advisable, with the team batting second securing victory in 67% of matches.
