IPL 2025: Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad Pitch Report & Stats Ahead of GT vs DC Match

Gujarat Titans (GT) will take on Delhi Capitals (DC) in Match 35 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on April 19. With an afternoon start and two strong sides clashing, fans can expect another exciting contest in this ongoing IPL season.

The Narendra Modi Stadium has offered balanced conditions for bat and ball, with the venue witnessing 39 matches so far—18 wins for teams batting first and 20 for those chasing. The average first innings score stands at 175, with the highest being 243. Red-soil pitches at the ground have especially favoured batters, with teams regularly posting 200-plus totals. On the other hand, black-soil surfaces have introduced some assistance for bowlers, keeping totals slightly in check.

In recent matches, the pitch selection has played a vital role. While red-soil tracks have been absolute belters, the black-soil strip used against Mumbai Indians proved effective for bowlers who varied their pace smartly. Whether the Titans opt for batting fireworks or bowling support might depend on the surface chosen for the day, but either way, run-scoring is likely to be central to the match narrative.

Given their familiarity with pitch variations at this venue and a solid home record, Gujarat Titans may enter the contest with a slight edge. However, Delhi Capitals’ versatile lineup and adaptability in both batting and bowling could level the playing field, especially if they read the conditions well early on.
