ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam: Pitch Report

The ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam is one of the batting-friendly venues in the country. The red-soil wicket is flat, and the ball comes onto the bat quite nicely. The proximity to the sea means dew can play a significant role in the evening games. Bowlers can get lateral movement due to the sea breeze, and spinners can get grip off the surface. Multiple games of the season have seen games with totals over 200 chased and defended successfully.
