A prediction, not a certainty. For fun and insight, not betting.
Par is the recent average first-innings score in the format, adjusted for how this ground and its country have played, leaning on the wider average when a ground has few matches. “Usually” is the middle half of first innings. Only full first innings count (all out or the full overs; no rain-shortened games).
Facts, matches and records come from our affiliated partners and our own archive.
Records come from the matches in our archive, which starts in the 2000s for most grounds, so older records may be missing. Super overs are left out. Lowest all-out counts only innings that lost all ten wickets.

From every completed match here in our archive. Averages leave out no-results and rain-adjusted (DLS) games; a format is shown only with at least five matches. Batting first is the side that batted in the first innings. Pitches change from season to season, so treat these as a long-run guide.
