Narendra Modi Stadium pitch report

There was a lot of turn on the track, and the same can be expected in this match as well. Axar Patel has been the best bowler on the ground where he has scalped 20 wickets in two matches. The pacers are expected to play a side role yet again on this ground. After Indore’s result, the teams may want a better wicket, but based on history, spinners should dominate.
One of the Test matches ended before day two and one ended before day three. Both captains would look to bat first upon winning the toss in this match as well. The batters will have a tough time in this match as well.
