Arun Jaitley Stadium Pitch

The pitch at Arun Jaitley Stadium offers a batting-friendly surface in T20 cricket. This game will be played on Pitch No. 5.

There was rain a few hours before the game, and the pitch was under covers, which would create extra moisture in the early stages. Fast bowlers are expected to get extra bounce from the moisture and the overcast conditions in the powerplay.

However, fans can expect a high-scoring game with both teams boasting quality top-order batters. The batters are likely to dominate the middle overs, as has been the case in recent IPL games at this venue.
