Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh Stadium Pitch Report
The pitch in Raipur for this IPL 2026 clash is expected to be a balanced track, but recent data suggest that the surface is not the easiest for batting. It has played slowly and remained low throughout the season making it difficult for batters to hit through the line. The boundaries here are significantly large at around 80 meters, which further helps the bowlers. A critical factor is the heavy dew expected during the second innings, which will make it incredibly hard for spinners to grip the ball. Consequently, the team winning the toss will almost certainly prefer to bowl first to take advantage of the improved batting conditions under the lights.
