CSK vs PBKS: Chepauk Pitch Report
The dry, hard surface at Chepauk has provided a balanced contest between bat and ball so far. Still, you can't expect a 200+ run total here. The new ball has offered some assistance to the bowlers. While there hasn’t been a significant turn on the surface, spinners do find some grip to work with during the middle overs. This season, the surface has been two-paced in most matches, but at Chepauk, there's always a knack for scoring runs, especially with shorter square boundaries. Dew has played a major role, making chasing the preferred option. The average first-innings score is expected to be around 175 runs.
