Narendra Modi Stadium Pitch Report
The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad is renowned for its batting-friendly surface, offering excellent bounce and pace, which favours high-scoring encounters. The pitch is typically flat, providing minimal assistance to bowlers, especially in the first innings. Spinners may find some grip as the match progresses, particularly in the second innings, due to the dry surface. The average first-innings score here is around 200, with teams fielding first winning approximately 55% of matches (20 out of 39 among 39 IPL games). Expect a run-fest, with captains likely preferring to chase if dew is present.
GT vs DC Match Preview
The Gujarat Titans (GT) face off against the Delhi Capitals (DC) in a crucial top-of-the-table clash in IPL 2025. DC have been the standout team, topping the points table with five wins in six matches (10 points), showcasing a balanced squad with strong batting and bowling. GT, sitting second with four wins from six games (8 points), are coming off a six-wicket loss to Lucknow Super Giants, where their bowling struggled to defend 180.
GT will rely on their explosive top order and Rashid Khan’s wizardry to challenge DC’s momentum. DC, led by Axar Patel, have been clinical, with KL Rahul and Tristan Stubbs anchoring the batting and Mitchell Starc and Kuldeep Yadav leading the bowling attack. This match could define the playoff race, with both teams eager to assert dominance.
