Pitch Report
Gujarat Titans vs Rajasthan Royals- The 23rd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 is set to be played at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. The pitch here has true bounce, which makes stroke-making easier for batters, and the relatively short boundaries (64m and 66m on the sides) further aid run-scoring. With a thin surface of grass on the field, Pacers will find it easy in the beginning of the innings, but later on, as the match progresses, the match will go in favor of spinners.
Additionally, with dew expected to settle in during the second innings, chasing will likely be the preferred strategy. Teams winning the toss may opt to field first to take advantage of the easier batting conditions under lights.
