The MA Chidambaram (Chepauk) Stadium’s solid, dry surface is known to favor spinners. However, due to the pitch’s reduced grass coverage, which benefits batters, there has been a focus on stroke-making this season. Nonetheless, things can change during afternoon games. Slower bowlers may be able to take advantage of the pitch in the afternoon, which may frustrate batters because the ball will not come off the bat as easily.
This year’s playing surface at Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium hasn’t been particularly slow; rather, runs have been scored frequently. The most recent game played here was an afternoon match between CSK and Punjab Kings, which saw over 400 runs scored.
A good total on this surface would be above 185, which may be difficult to achieve during afternoon games when the pitch slows down. As a result, the team that wins the toss will choose to bat first in order to avoid playing on a slow surface later on.
