RCB vs KKR Pitch Report

The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru is known for its batter-friendly pitch and lightning-fast outfield, creating the perfect setting for high-scoring games. The surface offers even bounce, allowing stroke-makers to play their shots confidently from the start. While pacers might find a slight swing early on, the short boundaries often leave bowlers with little margin for error.

Spinners, too, struggle to extract much turn, especially under the lights. Recently, Chasing has been the preferred strategy here, given how conditions ease out as the match progresses. The average first-innings score is around 170, promising plenty of action for fans.
