Vadodara Cricket Stadium (BCA Stadium), Kotambi

Vadodara Cricket Stadium Pitch Report

Early ODI evidence points to a surface that can support stroke play, with some new-ball help and evening dew possible in suitable conditions. The sample remains small, so the selected strip, preparation, grass cover, format and season must be checked for each match.

• Four completed ODIs formed the published sample reviewed.
• Two were won batting first and two by chasing teams.
• The average first innings score in that sample was 283.
• Boundary ropes can move with the pitch and event setup.
