Pitch Report:
The MA Chidambaram Stadium pitch is known for being spin-friendly, providing considerable turn and bounce as the match advances, which poses a challenge for batsmen, especially during the latter stages. Early on, fast bowlers may find limited bounce due to the slow nature of the surface, making it difficult for aggressive stroke play. Additionally, the dew factor can influence the pitch in the second half of the match, affecting ball movement and player strategies, though its impact can vary based on weather conditions.
