Gwalior pitch report for India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I match

As Gwalior prepares to host an international match for first time in years, excitement is building around the pitch at Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium before much-awaited India-Bangladesh clash on October 6. Both fans and players are eager to see how the surface will behave during IND vs BAN 1st T20I.

The Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium features a traditional pitch made of red soil, which is known for its good bounce and pace. This surface is expected to favor batters.

The venue has nine prepared pitches, with main pitch likely to benefit batters. Nevertheless, bowlers can find some support here as well, with opportunities for both spinners and seamers to make an impact.

Gwalior's quick outfield is expected to further aid run-scoring for batters. This is the iconic Captain Roop Singh Stadium, where 'Master Blaster' Sachin Tendulkar scripted history by scoring his maiden ODI double century against South Africa in 2010.

The team winning the toss here in Gwalior may prefer to bowl first and chase the target later, as average ODI score at this venue is 268 runs. The pitch tends to favor batters more, providing an advantage when chasing a total.
