AI CONFIDENCE: MODERATE (70%)
Match Intelligence
Real-time conditions factored into our model
Pitch
Red soil (Pitch No. 4), moderate scoring surface; IPL 2025 first-innings avg 187 (down from 203 in 2024); progressive spin assistance from middle overs onward; longest straight boundaries in India; not a 200-plus venue; toss winners win 64% of matches at this ground
Dew Factor
Low — clear skies, ~28C evening temperature, humidity ~30%; minimal dew impact on second innings expected
Key Absentees
LSG: Wanindu Hasaranga (awaiting SLC fitness clearance/NOC); DC: Mitchell Starc (shoulder and elbow injury)
Both teams' IPL 2026 season openers — zero IPL 2026 match data for either side; IPL 2025 stats and recent white-ball T20 form (2026 T20 WC, BBL 2025-26, SA20 2026, SMAT 2025-26) used as proxy; CURRENT FORM PARTIALLY UNKNOWN — confidence reduced by 10 on all battles per protocol
