IPL 2025: Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur Pitch Report & Stats Ahead of RR vs RCB Match

Prepend to the Content

Rajasthan Royals (RR) will go head-to-head with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in Match 28 of IPL 2025 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on April 13. The match is scheduled for a 3:30 PM (IST) start on what’s expected to be a dry and hot afternoon in the Pink City.

The Jaipur pitch has shown a change in character in recent seasons. While it was once seen as slow and tough for run-making, recent games have produced better scoring conditions. Over the past two IPL editions, the average first-innings total across 10 matches has risen to 180, a sign that batting has become more comfortable here. Despite that, pacers have struggled badly, recording the worst average and strike rate among all IPL venues during that time. Spinners might still play a big role, especially as the match progresses.

Traditionally, chasing has been easier in Jaipur. Out of 57 IPL matches played here, teams batting second have won 37 times. The overall average first-innings score remains modest at 162, but with the surface offering decent bounce and a fast outfield, batters who get set can cash in. Conditions will be hot, but no rain is expected, so there should be no interruptions.

RR are used to these conditions and have built a balanced squad around it. However, RCB’s big hitters can turn the game on its head if they manage to settle in early. Looking at the trend, the toss-winning captain might prefer to chase again.
