Pitch Report: The HPCA Stadium pitches often benefit bowlers. True bounce will be produced by the wickets on the black soil fields. The most recent ODI played at this location demonstrates that the HPCA tracks benefit medium pacers. According to the four ODIs played at this site, the team chasing has had better success than the side batting first.
