Pitch report
The surface at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow is slow in nature, and balls usually turn a lot on the pitch. A slow-paced game could be possible on the surface, with the spinner making the most of the chances provided to them. Opting to bat first and posting a big total on the board could be a wise decision.
