Dr DY Patil Sports Academy Pitch Report:

This surface offers steady, real bounce at a decent speed. Bowlers, however, will find it difficult to gain momentum. Openers have little trouble laying solid foundations. Games with high scores are typical, particularly after dew. Under the lights, pace bowlers can obtain early swing, creating movement that can cause problems for openers. Spinners find outstanding grip as the innings go on. Because the dew makes batting easier in the second inning, the captain who wins the toss chooses to select the ball first.
