LKN vs GT BRSABV Ekana Cricket Stadium Pitch Report
In the previous edition of the tournament, the pitch at the Ekana Cricket Stadium was renowned for its slow and sluggish nature. However, in the solitary match played here during IPL 2024.
It appeared to be significantly improved, offering genuine pace and bounce that favoured the batsmen. If the same pitch used in the last game is utilised for this match, we anticipate witnessing a high-scoring contest.
Both of LSG’s home matches this season have taken place on a pitch composed of red soil, delivering high-scoring encounters. LSG has emerged victorious in both fixtures this season by opting to bat first and then effectively applying pressure on their opponents to secure the win.
Choosing to bat first and imposing restrictions on the chasing team could potentially be the optimal strategy for both teams.
