GT vs CSK: Ahmedabad Pitch Report
The surface in Ahmedabad has played mostly true with some help for the new-ball bowlers early on. The black-soil pitch likely to be used for this match generally offers better bounce and carry than red-soil decks, which allows stroke-makers to capitalize in the powerplay.
However, the wicket can slow down as the match progresses, especially under lights. With boundaries measuring 74m and 70m square and 79m straight, there’s enough space for spinners and slower bowlers to be effective in the middle overs. Batting first has yielded better results this season in Ahmedabad, particularly as dew hasn’t played a major role in night games.
