Pitch Report
The Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium has hosted only two Test matches since its establishment. The latest match, featuring India and West Indies, took place in 2018. While the pitch is expected to be favorable to batters initially, as the match advances, bowlers are expected to have a substantial influence. Therefore, the team winning the toss may opt to bat first to take full advantage of the pitch conditions.
