Visakhapatnam's pitch is generally good for batting and has an average first-inning score of 241. However, it also aids slow bowlers, which means spinners can play a significant role in the game. The average second-inning score is 211, which is comparatively lower than the first-inning score. Additionally, with the possibility of dew setting in during the latter stages of the game, chasing might be the preferred option for the teams. Overall, the pitch conditions seem to be favorable for both batsmen and bowlers, and the team that adapts better to the conditions will likely have an advantage in the game.
Slow bowlers can also make an impact on this pitch, but with rain around, the ball may skid around for the pacers, making it difficult for the batsmen. Furthermore, the record shows that out of 14 games played at this venue, nine have been won by the team chasing. This suggests that the pitch and ground conditions at Visakhapatnam favor the chasing team. Hence, the team winning the toss might prefer to field first and chase down the target. Overall, it will be interesting to see how the teams adapt to the pitch conditions and weather and perform in the upcoming match. Will rain play a spoiler game will also be known in a few hours.
