Raipur Cricket Stadium pitch report

It has been observed during recent T20 matches played at the Naya Raipur Cricket Stadium that the pitch has generally favoured the batsmen. As the ball typically comes onto the bat neatly here, it has been simple for the batters to get going right away.

The playing field here maintains its trueness during the entire game, so the batters have no trouble assessing the ball. The batters benefit even more from the speedy outfield.

The pitch at Raipur Stadium does not provide much for pacers, thus they will need to rely on their variations to prevent hitters from scoring high totals there.

However, as soon as the ball’s shine is gone, the spinners would start to find a sizable amount of assistance here. Thus, at Raipur, the amount of spin may end up being crucial.

Batting here usually gets simpler as the game goes on. Therefore, any team at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium will aim to chase after winning the toss.
