Pitch Report

The pitch at Sawai ManSingh Stadium in Jaipur is a balanced surface that offers fair competition between bat and ball. It is known for its relatively large straight boundaries and a surface where spinners often gain grip in the middle overs. Moreover, the Pacers can get some movement with the new ball. This venue is suitable for high-scoring games, though historically it can be bowler-friendly compared to other IPL venues. The average first-innings score is approximately 173 runs.
