IPL 2025: Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad Pitch Report & Stats Ahead of GT vs CSK Match

Gujarat Titans (GT) will take on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Match 67 of IPL 2025 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on May 25. The high-stakes afternoon fixture kicks off at 3:30 PM IST and could be pivotal in shaping the playoff spots for both teams.

The pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium has consistently favoured the batters this season. With eight 200-plus totals recorded in just six matches, it’s become one of the most prolific run-scoring venues of IPL 2025.

The average first-innings score sits at 176, but recent trends suggest par may now be closer to 200. Batters are finding value for their shots, especially square of the wicket, while bowlers—particularly pacers—have had to rely on cutters and length variation.

Though teams have won both batting first (20 times) and chasing (21 times) almost equally, recent matches indicate a slight advantage while chasing, especially in day games where conditions tend to remain fairly consistent throughout both innings.

The previous afternoon match here saw Gujarat Titans comfortably chase 203 against Delhi Capitals, further highlighting the pitch’s true bounce and batter-friendly nature.

Given Gujarat’s familiarity with their home conditions and a potent batting unit capable of executing tall chases, they may carry a slight advantage over Chennai Super Kings. However, CSK’s seasoned campaigners and tactical nous can never be discounted in a high-pressure contest.
