KKR vs SRH: Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium Pitch Report
The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad is known for its batting-friendly pitch, providing an ideal environment for batters to thrive.
Pacers can find some assistance, particularly with the new ball, as the pitch offers turn and a bit of bounce. Spinners may also find a hint of turn off the surface.
However, batting usually becomes easier in the second half of the match. Ahmedabad traditionally favours chasing, so the team winning the toss will likely choose to bowl first.
