Ekana Cricket Stadium Pitch Report:
The Ekana Stadium in Lucknow has not witnessed many one-day cricket matches, and the statistics at this ground indicate that spin bowlers may play a pivotal role in shaping the game’s outcome with a slight edge over batters and seamers. Although the pitch tends to favour teams chasing a target, it’s worth noting that Australia suffered a loss against South Africa at this very venue during a run chase in their last fixture. Overall, both teams might find themselves in a highly competitive position and may look to bat first, considering the last game played at this ground.
