Pitch Report For DC vs RR IPL 2024 Match
The wicket at the Arun Jaitley Stadium has not been as friendly a batting surface as some of the others in IPL 2024. Despite that, scores of 200 runs have been breached thrice in the season already. Ahead of the match, DC head coach Ricky Ponting, however, reckons that it won't be easy to hit through the line on this surface with a bit of assistance for spinners, on this surface. Especially if the impact of the dew is less, it could be a great contest between bat and ball and one that is evenly contested between teams irrespective of the result of the toss.
