Pitch report

The surface at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi favours spin bowlers due to its slower surface, allowing the ball to grip and turn. However, shorter boundaries present an opportunity for batters to play aggressive shots and accumulate runs rapidly. Taking into account these conditions, the team that wins the toss will opt to field first at Kotla.
