“One side is 75 metres and the other side is 61 metres. Straight is 78 metres. Longest boundary from the pavilion end is the long-off boundary which is 81 metres. It is the red soil pitch which means more pace and bounce. There is little bit of grass, but not too much. It is gonna be low and slow. The dew is also unpredictable. Generally there hasn't been too much of dew here.”
The temperatures is expected to be on the higher side of 30's. There is, as of now, no chance of rainfall, so there will be no disruption in the game tonight.

The two teams have fought each other on the ground only twice in the IPL history, where Lucknow had emerged the winner in both the games. It is expected that Mumbai will give its all to defeat Lucknow as they already have the advantage of playing from their home ground.
The match will be held at Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. This stadium has hosted a total of 30 T20s in the last three years. According to cricketaddictor, the surface at Ekana helps the spinners hugely and becomes difficult to bat on during the later stages of the game.
KL Rahul's injury led Lucknow to make changes to at the top with Quinton de Kock coming in. Including him has vsisibly affected LSG in bowling as they had to drop Naveen-ul-Haq to manage four overseas players rule.
