Weather Conditions There will be clear skies over Ahmedabad, and we expect a warm and humid evening. The wicket is two-paced, and batsmen would have to be watchful. Spinners will likely enjoy the conditions in this game, as the dry surface would make the ball turn. The average first innings score is 170 runs, and the team batting first will target 200. GT vs PBKS Pitch Report Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, has a flat surface and quick outfield. Batsmen have done well, though the wicket can surprise them with its dual-paced nature. Batsmen who build their innings have been more successful here. Fast bowlers rely on their variations to earn rewards on this surface. It has been a happy hunting ground for the spinners as the ball can turn sharply and stop on the batsmen.

Teams like chasing the score at this venue. The side winning the toss in this game would invite the opponent to bat first.
