Last season, batting was slightly harder with a slow wicket on offer. But things might be different this time, as newly laid red soil pitches offer batters and bowlers the same opportunities.
The average first innings score is around 165. But it won’t be enough to defend on the new surface. So we might see some high-scoring games, with teams trying to put up 180-190 runs while batting first.
The last match played here saw Punjab Kings chase down 172 runs in 16.2 overs. So the pitch gets even better for batting in the second half, which might prompt teams to bowl first.
