The Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium is known for its bowling-friendly pitches. It is one of the few IPL venues where fast bowlers get ample assistance. Because of the high-altitude location of this ground, the air is thin here compared to the low-altitude stadium, which makes it easy for bowlers to cut through the air and swing the ball. Dharamshala is a venue where the bowl got the better of the bat.
