Ekana Cricket Stadium Pitch Report:

The Ekana Cricket Stadium pitch offers an intriguing narrative for bowlers, featuring two distinct phases. Initially, pacers dominate the scene, capitalizing on the swing of the new ball, especially during the evening matches under floodlights. However, as the game progresses and the ball loses its shine, spinners come to the fore, taking advantage of conditions that increasingly favour their skills. Expect batters to face a tough challenge in accumulating runs, with the pitch subtly tilting the match towards a scenario marked by modest scoring.

Lucknow Weather Forecast:

The weather forecast anticipates nearly perfect conditions for the match. Despite some overcast skies, there is zero likelihood of rain. Temperatures will remain pleasant at approximately 34 degrees Celsius. Humidity levels are expected to be mild, at around 25%, providing a comfortable environment for spectators. A gentle breeze of 8 kilometres per hour will also contribute to the overall enjoyable atmosphere.
