Sawai Mansingh Stadium Average Score in T20 History

Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur is set to host its second match of Indian Premier League 2023. This ground is hosting IPL matches for the first time after IPL 2019 and there is a lot of buzz amongst the people in the city for the same. The match against Chennai Super Kings is already sold out.

This is one of the biggest grounds in the country in terms of boundary dimensions. Fours and sixes don’t come here easily and, hence, running between the wickets automatically becomes the key. This is a stadium where the bowlers usually have an upper hand as compared to the other venues around the country.

Rajasthan Royals, who won just three of their seven home matches last time around, have started this season with a defeat at this stadium as well. They would certainly want to improve this record in front of their passionate home fans. When Rajasthan had won the title in 2008, they ended up winning all of their home matches.
