Pitch Report 

Bengaluru’s M. Chinnaswamy Stadium is similarly regarded as a batsman’s paradise, with short boundaries and a fast outfield. It is a batter’s paradise, with runs galore. The pitch may start to help bowlers, particularly spinners, as the game wears on. Even when the toss winners prefer to chase, the impending dew can make bowling in the second half problematic.
