The pitch of the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium is flat, making it favourable for batters. However, the last match played at this venue was quite unusual. Hyderabad scored only 143 runs while batting first, and the opposing team successfully chased down the target in the 16th over. It's expected that fast bowlers will receive significant support from the pitch. Spinners may get some assistance in the first inning only.
