Record of all T20 International matches played in Ranchi

Ranchi's pitch is traditionally a bit slow, due to which spin bowlers get a lot of help here. Dew has a big impact on this ground in the evening, hence the team winning the toss prefers to bowl first so that batting can be easier later.

Talking about the statistics, the average score of the first innings is 138 runs and the average score of the second innings is 111 runs, which shows that batting in the second innings becomes a bit difficult. The highest score on this ground is 196/6, which was achieved by India against Sri Lanka in 2016, while the highest score successfully chased on this ground is 155/3, which was achieved by India against New Zealand in 2021.

Will the invincible juggernaut continue against West Indies?

The morale of the Indian team is high after thrashing the West Indies bowlers in the first match of the series. Indian spinner Kuldeep Yadav's record on this ground of Ranchi has been excellent. If Team India maintains its 75% winning streak on October 9, then it will take a very strong 2-0 lead in the series.
