PBKS vs RCB: IPL Match Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Pitch Report

The pitch at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium is usually good for batsmen, with high run scores often seen. Both pacers and spinners also get some support here.

However, the Mullanpur pitch can be unpredictable for teams, as shown in the three matches played here this year. In the first two matches, the team batting first scored over 200 runs. But in the last match between KKR and PBKS, the home team managed to defend the lowest-ever IPL total of 111 runs.
