Ahmedabad Pitch Report – RCB vs PBKS IPL 2025 Final
The pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium generally favours batters. A high-scoring game is expected, especially in the first half. As the match progresses, spinners are likely to get some assistance. Considering it’s an evening game, the team winning the toss may prefer to bowl first, as chasing becomes easier due to the presence of dew. A total above 200 runs will be considered a strong score on this surface.
So far, a total of 42 IPL matches have been played at this venue. Out of those, teams batting first have won 20 matches, while teams chasing have won 22 matches. This indicates that chasing a target is slightly easier on this pitch.
