GT vs DC: Narendra Modi Stadium Pitch Report

The pitch has a dual-paced nature, requiring batsmen to stay vigilant. Spinners are expected to benefit from the conditions in this match, as the dry surface encourages the ball to turn. 

The stadium features a flat pitch and fast outfield, which has typically favoured batsmen. However, the pitch’s unpredictable dual-paced behaviour can catch them off guard. Batsmen who take their time to build their innings have found more success here.

Fast bowlers use a variety of deliveries to find success on this surface, while spinners have historically thrived due to the sharp turn and the ball’s tendency to hold up on the batsmen. Setting a total on this wicket is challenging as teams have successfully chased large scores. 

Both teams will face pressure, aiming to set a clear target score. The team winning the toss is likely to choose to field first, putting the opposition into bat.
