M. Chinnaswamy Stadium pitch report
The surface at Chinnaswamy Stadium offers perfect conditions for batters to shine. While fast bowlers and spinners may find some support, the shorter boundaries pose a significant challenge. This could lead to a high-scoring contest, with the captain winning the toss likely choosing to chase. The pitch’s flat nature and the compact boundaries make chasing a favourable strategy.
