PBKS vs DC: HPCA Stadium Pitch Report
The pitch at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala during IPL 2025 has produced high-scoring encounters, with an average first innings score of 236 this season. While the surface favors aggressive batting, especially under clear skies, pace bowlers have found some assistance with the new ball due to the pitch's natural bounce and movement. The high altitude also helps the ball carry further, aiding big-hitters. Spinners, however, have struggled to extract much turn. Teams winning the toss often opt to bowl first, hoping to exploit early seam conditions. Weather remains a key factor, with occasional cloud cover influencing the swing early on.
