PITCH REPORT :

The Lucknow surface is not considered to be a very good batting surface as it's a bit slow surface and spinners get more wickets, stats shows. 9 International T20's have been played and 5 have been won by team batting second and 4 by team batting first, so toss doesn't play a Big factor here.
