Mullanpur Stadium, New Chandigarh: Pitch report

The pitch offers something for both batters and bowlers. Teams have managed to breach the 200 mark in three matches this season with the surface having consistent carry and bounce throughout the match.

We saw live grass near the crease but the rest of the track was bare, with dry patches. The pitch looked two-paced, sticky, and gripped off the surface when bowlers used their slow-ball variations.

Batters did face challenges but once they settled and got their eye in, run-scoring became easier. It has appeared to be a tricky surface so far and not a belter despite the big scores.

Boundary dimensions (from South End):

  • Straight - 74m 
  • Square - 66m & 65m
  • Third man & Fine leg - 60m & 61m
  • Deep mid-wicket & Deep cover - 69m & 68m
