MA Chidambaram Stadium Pitch Report

This pitch of Chepauk is of black soil. Today, some cracks are also seen here. Batting first, the score of 190 runs will be good. Spinners can be installed here first. If the batsmen want to put big shots as soon as they come, then you can do your own harm, it would be good to stop and bat a little here. The decision to bowl here first after winning the toss will be right.
