Pitch Report – Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad

Understanding the pitch is the first step in creating a winning Dream11 team. The Narendra Modi Stadium features a red-soil pitch. This surface offers good bounce and carry during the first hour. As the match progresses, the pitch flattens considerably. Key statistical indicators for any GT vs CSK Toss and Match Prediction include:

  • Average first innings score: 185-195 runs
  • Average second innings score: 175-185 runs (but chasing teams win 68% of matches)
  • Spin impact: Spinners get turn in the first 10 overs of each innings
  • Dew factor: Humidity exceeds 65% after 9 PM. The ball becomes slippery, making batting easier in the second innings.
