India Vs Sri Lanka, 2nd T20I Pitch Report:
The Holkar Cricket stadium was before known as Maharani Usharaje Trust Cricket Ground. The Indore Cricket Pitch Report is known to be a batting delight, with a decent pace and even bounce for the batsman to hit through the line. The boundaries at the Holkar are entirely small compared to other grounds in India, which makes it simpler for the batsmen to hit sixes easily.
