Lucknow pitch report
The pitch of Ekana Stadium in Lucknow is usually slow, which is why scores are not very big here. The pitch here is especially helpful for spinners. That means the team whose spinners play better here can remain a little ahead. As the match progresses, the turn also increases and it becomes very difficult for the batsmen to score runs. Batsmen are thoroughly tested here.
batting first is profitable
In IPL, a total of 6 matches have been played so far at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Khanau. Out of these, 5 matches have been won by the team batting first, while one match has been won by the team batting later. It clearly shows that batting first here can be a profitable deal. That means whichever captain wins the toss between Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul can decide to bat first. Here the average score in the first innings is 160 runs, whereas in the second innings the average score is only 122 runs. That is, if there is not much change in the pitch then scoring 200 runs here will be a very difficult task.
