Ground Stats of Ekana Cricket Stadium in IPL

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

In the last match on this ground, the home-side Lucknow Super Giants defeated the defending champions Chennai Super Kings by 8 wickets.

In the IPL, 11 matches have been played at Lucknow so far, and 54.55% of them have been won by the team batting first, while 36.36% of them have been won by the chasing team, and one match ended with no result.

The Ekana Cricket Stadium pitch presents a dynamic narrative for bowlers, offering a two-act spectacle. In the initial stages, pacers seize the spotlight, exploiting the swing of the new ball, particularly under the floodlights. Yet, as the innings unfold and the ball loses its lustre, spinners emerge as protagonists, capitalizing on a surface that increasingly favours their expertise.

Unlike most venues, the overall statistics clearly show that chasing has not benefited at the Ekana Cricket Stadium.
