Ground Stats of Ekana Cricket Stadium in IPL

The Ekana Cricket Stadium is set to host its second game of the season. A total of seven matches will be hosted at this venue in IPL 2024.

This pitch is just like any other in the Indian Premier League; it favours hitters and gives bowlers very little. Slower bowlers (especially spinners), however, might benefit from it in some way. In the IPL, only eight matches have been played at Lucknow, and 75% of them have been won by the team batting first, while 12.5% of them have been won by the chasing team, and one match ended with no result.
