The pitch at this venue is traditionally known for being flat and batting-friendly, providing ample opportunities for batsmen to score runs. The surface is hard and dry with good bounce, making it ideal for stroke-making. However, spinners may find some assistance from the surface, especially in the latter stages of the innings, as the pitch tends to slow down and offer some turn.
The average first innings total at the ground is just over 159, while the average second innings total is around 148. Historically, teams chasing targets have had a better win rate, with 40 out of 71 matches won by the team batting second.

Strategy Tips
