IND vs ENG: Pitch Report

The pitch at the Rajkot ground is reportedly one of the flattest surfaces expected in the series. Spinners might find assistance with turn and bounce only from the third day onward. Until then, teams might rely on pacers with extra pace. Given the favorable batting conditions, winning the toss will likely prompt the team to opt for batting first. Historically, teams have preferred batting first here, with the average first innings score being 295.
