In a fascinating clash, Gujarat Titans will cross swords against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 60th group-stage fixture of the ongoing Indian Premier League season. As both teams are studded with some outright match-winners, we expect a cracking contest at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. As the venue gears up for the game, let's see what the pitch report says. 


Narendra Modi Stadium Pitch Report

The pitch at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad will be favourable for stroke play, having even pace and bounce on it. The batters will enjoy their time in the middle, as the ball will come nicely onto the bat. 

However, the fast bowlers will get some movement off the surface with the new ball early in the innings. The spinners will get a hint of turn, but won't make the batters dance to their tunes. 

Statistically, the average scoring rate at the venue reads a whopping 8.28, indicating the track's conduciveness for batting. Furthermore, we have seen several high-scoring fixtures here in this tournament. 

So, all in all, it will be a fantastic surface to bat on, with occasional help for new ball bowlers and spinners. As chasing teams have fared astoundingly here, the toss-winning team will likely bowl first.
