MA Chidamabaram pitch report:
The surface at the MA Chidambaram Stadium is one that is quite slow; spinners have traditionally enjoyed bowling at the venue. However, in recent times, the pitch has been more and more batter-friendly. Opting to bat first after winning the toss in the upcoming game could prove to be a wise decision.ย
