Pitch & conditions
The patterns we see repeat across the matches on record — what works at Sawai Mansingh, and what captains should plan for.
Across 97 matches at this ground, teams batting second have won 64% of the time. Captains appear to have taken note: 60% of toss winners choose to field first. The 12-run first-innings average lead (165 vs 153) suggests the surface holds up reasonably well, but the chasing trend is hard to ignore.
The average powerplay produces 46 runs at a cost of 1.34 wickets, which is a relatively controlled phase by T20 standards. That restraint through the first six overs tends to push the scoring load into the middle overs, where the average climbs to 75 runs across overs 7 to 15.
An average of 39 runs in the final five overs is on the lower side for a T20 venue. Bowlers with good slower-ball variations could find conditions helpful in the back end of an innings, and the lower death-overs average partly explains why first-innings totals rarely balloon out of control.
Rajasthan Royals have played 62 of the 97 matches here and won 38 of them, a win rate of 61%. No visiting IPL side comes close to matching that record, with Mumbai Indians (30%) and Punjab Kings (33%) among the teams who have struggled at this ground.
Across 10 ODIs at Sawai Mansingh Stadium, unbeaten centuries have been recorded by batters from India, West Indies and Bangladesh. That variety points to a surface that has generally offered fair conditions for top-order batters across formats, rather than flattering only one style of play.
