Pitch report from the Ma Chidambaram stadium:
The Ma Chidambaram stadium in Chepauk is renowned for its conditions adapted to its spin and its rich history of cricket, having hosted 78 IPL games. The teams beating first were more successful, obtaining 46 victories against 32 by continuing the teams.
Initially, the land offers favorable conditions for strikers with a good pace and a good rebound, allowing manufacturers to prosper. However, as the game progresses, the surface tends to slow down, which makes the pursuit more and more difficult. Rapid quisors benefit from early aid, but the spinners dominate the subsequent stages by exploiting the deterioration of the height. Consequently, the captains often choose to beat first after having won the draw to capitalize on the first conditions adapted to the striker.
