HPCA International Cricket Stadium Pitch Report:

The HPCA Stadium is renowned for its batter-friendly pitch, featuring a bounce that assists fast bowlers. Historically, it has hosted high-scoring matches, with its elevated position above sea level promising swing for the new ball, favouring pace bowlers who can exploit such conditions. However, spinners often find little assistance here due to minimal turn. Consequently, it is poised to be an ideal batting track, offering occasional bounce and movement for the pacers.
