(Last 10 match)

The pitch at CAP Siechem Ground has consistently favored batters in the early stages, allowing for fluent stroke play during the powerplay. The surface tends to play true, with minimal seam movement and decent bounce. Teams batting first have often capitalized on these conditions to post strong totals. However, as the match progresses, the pitch can slow down slightly, bringing spinners and slower balls into the equation. Bowlers who rely on variation are generally successful in the second innings. A total in the range of 160–175 is considered competitive here. Captains winning the toss may opt to bat first to take advantage of the fresh surface.
