Ahmedabad Stadium highest score T20: Motera Stadium average score IPL

Ahmedabad Stadium highest score T20: Narendra Modi Stadium has witnessed only one 200+ innings total in the Indian Premier League.

Ahmedabad is in the spotlight after the pinnacle of the ongoing 15th season of the Indian Premier League will be played here from tomorrow. Practically a second semi-final, IPL 2022 Qualifier 2 will be played between Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore.

In what will be the first match for Gujarat Titans at their home ground in the Narendra Modi Stadium, they will face the winner of Qualifier 2 in IPL 2022 final on Sunday.

Considering the intensity of cricket played in both IPL 2022 playoffs thus far, fans would be hoping for Ahmedabad to produce playoffs matches similar to Kolkata.

As far as the average innings score at the Narendra Modi Stadium is concerned, it has been 158.2 in a total of 47 T20s over the years. Speaking particularly of the 17 IPL matches played here across four seasons in the past, average innings total rises by a small margin to 161.2.
