Spin BowlingAverage Turn
M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, has always been a good hunting ground for the batters as a fast outfield and shorter boundaries have aided them. Fast bowlers do well with the new ball. Smaller boundaries make it easy for the batsmen to hit the ball in the air. Spinners have always had it tough at this venue.
Toss: To Bowl
The side chasing the score has won five out of the last eight games. The surface is initially slow, and putting a total on it is always challenging. Teams chasing the total have enjoyed an advantage, and the team winning the toss won’t hesitate to bowl first in this game.
