Pace vs Spin on Venue

(Last 10 match)

The Ekana pitch in Lucknow has traditionally offered a good balance between bat and ball. In the early overs, pacers can extract movement with the new ball, making batting slightly challenging upfront. However, once the batters settle, the true bounce and even surface allow stroke-making with ease. Spinners also enjoy success here, especially in the middle overs, as the surface tends to grip under lights. With short boundaries on one side and a lightning-quick outfield, a first-innings total of around 160–175 should be competitive. Captains winning the toss may prefer to bowl first, considering the dew factor that often comes into play during night matches.
