So, as both teams gear up for a thriller encounter, let's see how the pitch at the Ekana stadium in Lucknow will behave throughout the game. 

Ekana Cricket Stadium Lucknow Pitch Report

The Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Stadium, also known as the Ekana Cricket Stadium has a flat wicket surface, that helps the slow bowlers at the initial stage of the game and as the match moves on, spinners have an advantage at this track and dominate the wicket column. 

The Ekana Stadium in Lucknow has a red-soil pitch that offers minimal seam movement to the fast bowler in the powerplay. The pitch can offer some help to the spinners throughout the game. The team that has batted first on this ground have had an added advantage on this field. 

Strokeplay is easy for the batters of the team that is batting first against the hard new ball. So, considering the record on this track, the captain who wins the toss will generally opt to bat first and put ample runs for the other team to chase.
