Pitch Report for Ekana Stadium:
The Ekana pitch has been somewhat hard to read, playing differently at various times. Lately, the pitch has been on the slower side, giving low bounce, so batsmen often find it laborious to hit with pure strokes for runs. This might make a difference for LSG against SRH.
LSG is also intending to turn the tides with five victories and six losses registered so far. Dew would be one of those factors games might turn around, so most probably, the winning captain of the toss would prefer to field first. Generally, scores at the Ekana stadium aren’t high; the average first-innings total stands at 167. To stay in segregating the dew factor when bowling second, the batting first team should look for a total of around 180 to 190 runs.
LSG has to win their last three games to keep their playoff hopes alive after missing out last season. A total of 19 IPL matches have been played at Ekana, with the team batting first winning 8 and the chasing teams winning 10. The highest successful chase here was 199 runs by the Rajasthan Royals against LSG in 2024. Both sides will be hungry for a win as they go head to head on LSG’s home turf.
