MA Chidambaram Stadium Pitch Report

The pitch at MA Chidambaram stadium  is usually slow and low. The team with an array of spinners will do well here. One does not know the exact nature of the surface yet but expect CSK spinners to dominate. Chennai build their squad according to the nature of the track at Chepauk and that is why you see Ravindra Jadeja, Mitchell Santner, Moeen Ali, Maheesh Theekshana in te squad. 

RCB have Karn Sharma and Glenn Maxwell as two spinners who may constantly play for them. But they know that playing CSK in Chepauk will not be easy and their spinners won’t be the gamechangers, the batters will have to step up. 

The team which wins the toss, would look to bowl first. CSK have a great record in Chennai. Out of the last five matches they have played here, CSK have won four. The slow nature of these pitches is reflected in the fact that in history of IPL, 200+ score has been achieved at MA Chidambaram stadium only four times.
