Arun Jaitley Stadium Pitch Report
The playing surface at the Arun Jaitley Stadium is sluggish and dreary. As the game goes, the batters must ensure that they score large during the powerplay since scoring runs becomes more difficult. Four of the five matches this season have been won by the chasing team. The venue history also indicates that the side batting second has a significant edge. So, whomever wins the toss will have no problem in following that pattern. At this venue, the average score when batting first is 162.
