Pitch and Conditions
The Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai is always a batting-friendly pitch. In IPL 2025, five games have been played so far at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Three out of these four games have been won by teams batting second. The average first-innings score across these matches is 178.
In the second innings, the dew factor also comes into play, making it easier for batters. The pitch at this venue generally offers some swing for bowlers in the first couple of overs. However, once batters get set at the crease, they can score heavily.
The team that wins the toss may opt to bowl first, considering the recent trends.
