The pitch at Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow is well-known for being ridiculously slow and heavily bowling-friendly. It has consistently proved to be a very profitable surface for the top quality spinners and for very accurate medium pacers who use a lot of subtle pace variations. As the game progresses, the scoring rate only tends to get progressively more difficult; therefore, power-play overs are very important to both sides. In addition, it’s usually around 160 to 170 that’s regarded as a seriously competitive score on the above ground, and shot selection will be key to this!
