CSK vs KKR Pitch Report

The wicket at Chepauk has been changed overtime and batters enjoy their time with good bounce on offer so they can play their shots. There will be no movement for the pacers with the new ball and the spinner too haven’t found a lot of grip or turn like old days.

The pitch will be hard and the batter are expected to dominate the game. Dew has been a factor in evening games and toss winning teams will aim to chase.
