Pitch report

The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium has shown some signs of being tricky for batting so far this season. In the only game played here, SRH managed just 156, and LSG chased it down with only one ball to spare. That was a day game when the surface was drier. Tonight’s match is a night game, so the pitch should behave better and offer more help to batters. We can expect a high-scoring contest with both teams looking to post big totals.
