RR vs LSG IPL 2023: Sawai Mansingh Stadium Jaipur Pitch Report

The Sawai Mansingh Stadium pitch in Jaipur is expected to provide a challenging contest between Rajasthan Royals and Lucknow Super Giants in the Tata IPL 2023 match no. 26. With a greenish tinge to the pitch, pacers can expect some swing and bounce in the initial overs of the match, making it difficult for batsmen to settle in. Spinners can also get assistance from the pitch due to the uneven bounce, which could make run-scoring challenging in the middle overs.

The surface at Sawai Mansingh Stadium is known to provide a fast outfield with even bounce, which could enable batsmen to score quickly once they settle in. However, given the history of the venue, it might be advisable for the captain winning the toss to bowl first. Take a look at the IPL numbers at Sawai Mansingh Stadium,
