HPCA Stadium Complex Pitch Report

Nestled in the breathtaking locale of Dharamsala, the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association (HPCA) Stadium is renowned for its bowler-friendly conditions, characterized by seam and swing movement. However, as the game progresses and the pitch ages, spin is expected to become a significant factor. Batters, though, can still amass substantial runs by displaying patience and adaptability, mastering the transition from the early challenges posed by seam and swing.
