The Ekana surface in Lucknow is expected to assist bowlers, particularly because of its slower nature and variable pace. Scores at the venue this season have mostly stayed between 140 and 160, with batters often finding it difficult to play freely from the start. Bowlers who rely on cutters, slower deliveries and tight lines are likely to enjoy success, although set batters can still cash in once they settle into the conditions.
