Talking about the Wankhede Stadium before the match between Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals (MI vs DC), the pitch here has always been helpful for the batsmen. Here the average score in IPL has been 180 runs. However, here it is easier to chase runs in the second innings. Due to having short boundaries, the result remains in favor of the batsmen more than the bowlers. Since the faster outfield gives the full advantage to the batter, it is also easier to hit big shots on this ground.
One of the major reasons for this is that it is getting hotter and with the onset of evening, the dew starts falling rapidly. In such a situation, the ball comes easily on the bat, which the batsman does not hold back from taking advantage of. Big scores have also been seen in the matches held here. If the start is good, it will be easy to touch the target of 200 runs here. Thats why winning the toss also becomes more important on this ground.
