Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium Pitch Report:

Visakhapatnam, commonly known as Vizag, has been absent from the IPL match roster since 2019. Nevertheless, this venue is renowned for its pitches that typically favor batting, offering conducive conditions for fluid stroke play and consistent bounce. Over time, there has been a discernible trend towards spinners gaining effectiveness as the match progresses, adding an intriguing dimension to the gameplay. Despite the spin-friendly conditions, the presence of dew later in the game is expected to provide an advantage to the batters, potentially balancing out the contest.
