IND vs NZ: Holkar Stadium Pitch Ready for High-Scoring Thriller with Malwa Black Soil

  • Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore is set for the IND vs NZ ODI, featuring a pitch made with special 'Malwa Black Soil'.
  • Chief Pitch Curator Manohar Jamle highlights the soil's high moisture retention, ensuring consistent bounce and preventing quick cracks.
  • The pitch is a 'batsmen's paradise' due to even bounce and small boundaries, facilitating high scores.
  • Bowlers face a challenge, though spinners might get some slower turn and grip in the second innings or middle overs.
  • Dew factor is a concern, with 'anti-dew' sprays being used to mitigate its impact on the team bowling second.

Why It Matters: Indore's Holkar Stadium, with its special Malwa black soil pitch, promises a high-scoring IND vs NZ ODI.
