Pitch Report – Chepauk, Chennai
Chepauk stayed true to its reputation in the last game, with spinners calling the shots. CSK’s Noor Ahmad and MI’s Vignesh Puthur bagged seven wickets between them, and similar conditions are expected tonight.
Spinners will dominate, especially in the second innings, while pacers might get some early swing. Batters will need to settle in before going big. A score of 170-180 should be competitive on this balanced surface.
