SRH vs GT Pitch Report

The surface for tonight's clash is on the drier side and noticeably slower than other pitches at this venue. Boundaries measure 70m and 63m square, with 76m straight down the ground. According to experts, it's the kind of track where you'd prefer giving a pitch report over bowling on it. With the highest score here being just 165 in the past three years, batters will have to work hard. Slower balls are expected to play a key role in keeping runs in check.
