DC vs MI IPL 2023: Arun Jaitley Stadium Delhi Pitch Report, Team Records at Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium

Next up is match no 16 of Tata IPL 2023 to be played between Delhi Capitals and 5-time IPL champions Mumbai Indians at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Both teams are yet to open their account this season and a win is the only thing they are looking forward to. How the pitch at Arun Jaitley Stadium behave for this game? Let’s discuss.

Arun Jaitley Stadium Delhi Pitch Report

The Arun Jaitley Stadium has been hosting IPL matches since the inception of the league, with its latest stint being four matches in the 2021 season. In the 2019 season, it hosted seven matches of Delhi Capitals. Therefore, analyzing the statistics of these two seasons can provide a clear picture of the pitch report of the Arun Jaitley Stadium.

The pitch at Feroz Shah Kotla has been conducive to batting in recent times, with two out of four games in the 2021 season seeing teams batting first crossing the 200-run mark. In fact, Mumbai Indians chased down a target of 218 runs against CSK on this pitch in the same season. However, there was some grass present on the Delhi pitch during the 2021 IPL matches, leading to the limited role of spinners in recent fixtures. In IPL 2021, spinners were only getting around 4-5 overs per innings.

Teams batting first at the Arun Jaitley Stadium will need to put up a score of 170+ on the board, unless chasing proves to be easy on this ground. Taking into account the recent pitch conditions, it seems that the surface is more favorable for the batsmen than the spinners.
