=== Greenfield International Stadium Boundary Length ===
There is not much playing surface at the Greenfield Stadium. The square boundaries are approximately 65 metres, while the straighter boundaries are approximately 70 metres. Even though the pitch is not very long, it will still be challenging for the batters since it is primarily a bowler's pitch.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Biswas |first=Niladri |date=2023-01-13 |title=Greenfield International Stadium Thiruvananthapuram Boundary Length and Seating Capacity |url=https://thesportslite.com/cricket/greenfield-international-stadium-thiruvananthapuram-boundary-length-and-seating-capacity/ |access-date=2023-01-18 |website=The SportsLite |language=en-US}}</ref>
 
=== Greenfield International Stadium Pitch Report ===
The Greenfield International Stadium has proven to be a difficult pitch for batters, with bowlers having the upper hand. In the past year, South Africa and India had a T20I match there that was entirely bowler-centric. Subsequently, an OD between India and West Indies happened in 2018 where the latter were restricted to an embarrassing 104 runs. It is a track where pacers can capitalize on early swing, while spinners will have more success as the pitch matures.
