MA CHIDAMBARAM STADIUM(CHENNAI) Pitch Report

The pitch of MA Chidambaram Stadium is normally dry and hard, which breaks down as time passes. You will not see green grass at all on this pitch. Being dry and hard pitch, it is easy to bat in the first two innings on this pitch. With the passing of time on this pitch, the pitch begins to erode with the foot marks of the bowler and due to the heat, cracks are also seen on the pitch which helps the spin bowlers. If the batsmen have the ability to play spin, then the match goes to the fourth innings. Here in the third innings, runs are scored less than the first two innings and in the fourth innings, very few runs are made because here the ball starts to spin too much.

Test Match Pitch Report and Toss Factor:

As we have seen all 4 Test innings average scores of last 5 Test matches at MA Chidambaram Stadium, we can say that in first 2 innings there are lots of runs are made and if the Batsmen is technically sound with the spin bowling so in third innings also can be made good score but once spinners start to get good turn on this Chepauk wicket then it becomes difficult to make runs in third and fourth Innings. It can be clearly inferred that in first three days of the Test match, batting is lot easier and slowly this pitch starts to be difficult for batting on fourth and fifth day. The team that wins the toss always decides to bowl first on MA Chidambaram Stadium wicket in Tests, because the pitch here is dry and hard which is known as batting surface. Here the batsmen of the top order bat well and also score lots of runs in first days of the Test match. It is very easy to bat here in the first and second innings, due to which the team here can score 350+ runs in the first innings and 450+ runs in the second innings. If the team takes the lead in the second innings, then the spinners in the third and fourth innings are helped by the footmarks and pitch cracks.
