The pitch at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium is a balanced one. There will be an equal assistance to both batters and bowlers. Long square boundaries at this venue help the bowlers keep a check on the scoring rate.
The seamers are expected to get some lateral movement off the surface. The spinners will come into play as the ball gets old. Teams prefer batting first here as it is a difficult chasing ground. Anything around 170 will be a good total to defend at this venue.
