Narendra Modi Ahmedabad Stadium Pitch Report for GT vs DC IPL 2023 Match
The pitch in Ahmedabad has been absolute belter so far in the tournament. This surface has been a heaven for batters where they have been able to play their shots properly. There is an even amount of bounce on this surface, and being a red-soil track, the new-ball bowlers can have some advantage here.
A total of four matches have been played so far this season here and the average first innings score has been 192 runs. Despite such a huge score, three matches have been won by the chasing teams. The outfield is lightening quick here and the fielders will find it tough to stop the ball once placed in the gap.
The mid-wicket boundaries are quite small on this ground and it will be targeted by the batters. In the last match, the pitch got a little difficult for batting in the second innings. The dew factor may play a part in this match which will encourage the captains to bowl first after winning the toss.
