Sawai Mansingh Stadium pitch report
Jaipur’s Sawai Mansingh Stadium hosted a last competitive game in November 2017, where India and New Zealand faced each other in a T20I match. This was the only T20I at his ground, where India won the match by five wickets at the end.
The pitch at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium always has a greenish tinge to it, and the pacers get some movement in the initial overs of the match. The outfield of the SMS stadium is one of the biggest in the world, and the spinners certainly can take advantage of it in the middle overs.
Once set, the batters will be able to play their shots as there is a true bounce on the wicket, and the outfield is quite fast as well. It is difficult to hit sixes at this ground so the batters of both sides will look to it boundaries and the bigger ground dimensions will allow them to run some runs as well.
SMS Stadium hosted 7 games of IPL 2019, where the average 1st innings score was 163 runs and six games were won by the chasing teams. Both captains would look chase upon winning the toss in this match as well.
