In five matches played in Guwahati, teams have two matches each while batting first and second.
The average first innings score indicates run-scoring can be difficult on this surface. Although teams have gone past 190 on three occasions, the sticky nature of the pitch can make matters worse for batters.
Thus, teams can opt to bowl first and restrict their opponent to around 150-160 to chase the target with ease.
RR vs CSK, 11th Match, IPL 2025: Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati Pitch Report
Going by the last match played here, the venue may roll out a slow and dry pitch. The black soil pitch lacks bounce, which prevents batters from executing their shots with confidence.
Bowlers, though, will trouble the batters. Spinners, especially, will play a huge role as they will get enough help from the dry surface.
We can expect a 160-170 kind of game on this surface between RR and CSK.
