India are 2-1 ahead in the 4-match series but they have to win the Ind vs Aus 4th Test in Ahmedabad at any cost to seal a spot in final of World Test Championship (WTC 2023) Final, set to be played in England's The Oval. The curiosity among fans and cricket pundits regarding how the pitch for IND-AUS 4th Test in Ahmedabad is going to be is at its peak.

As per a report by news agency PTI, the pitch at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium, venue of IND vs AUS 4th Test, is set to be 'normal'.

"We haven't received any instructions from the Indian team management and our local curators are preparing a normal track as we have always done through the season," a state association source told PTI.

"In fact, last Ranji game over here in January, Railways scored 500 plus (508) batting first and Gujarat, although suffered innings defeat, scored 200 plus in both innings. It won't be too different this time," he said. "Obviously, last few days the BCCI's grounds and pitches committee instruct the local curator. But, certainly, from our end our endeavour is to produce a good Test match pitch," the source further added.
