Arun Jaitley Stadium pitch report
If we talk about the pitch of Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, it has generally been helpful to the batsmen. The stadium is small, so fours and sixes are hit a lot. If something similar is seen happening this time too, then it is not a big deal. In the matches held in this stadium of Delhi in this year’s IPL, the figure of 200 has been crossed many times. That means for the first time both the teams will have a chance to score more than 200. Spinners can get some help here. If we look at Delhi’s performance on home ground in the current season, the team has won three out of the four matches played on this ground and has faced defeat in only one match.
