Now whichever team wins this important match will face Chennai Super Kings in the title match of the 16th season of the Indian Premier League on Sunday, May 28. Now in the race to win this match, a fierce competition can be seen between the two teams.
Is Narendra Modi Stadium a batting pitch or a bowling pitch?
First of all, talking about the record of Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium, in IPL 2023, 7 matches have been played here in the group stage, in which the team batting first has won 4 times while the team bowling first has won 3 times. However, in the last three matches, the teams have won by bowling first. The Narendra Modi Stadium will help the bowlers while the challenge for the batsmen will be less. Here the aerial attack will have to be avoided while the middle order will have to focus on single doubles. The emphasis should be on scoring quick runs in the first 6 overs (powerplay). In the absence of an early wicket, a score of 200 can be made here. If the team batting first scores 190-200 runs then chasing the target will be challenging. Here spin bowlers can get maximum wickets. The captain winning the toss should decide to bowl first here.
