With the ground’s record being in favour of the team bowling first and the surface being a belter for batters, the captain winning the toss would be desperate to bowl first. Batters will enjoy their time on the surface as the ball comes easily onto the bat and it’s fair to say that the stadium will be host to another high-scoring game.
The average first and second innings score at the venue is 207 and 209 respectively. Though it has been host to only one T20I, nothing can be said about how the surface will play when India and Australia will face on Sunday.

Rain played the spoilsport in the second T20I between India and Australia and the game was reduced to 8-over per side. However, the third game is expected to be much larger than we saw in Nagpur.
