Chennai pitch has been helpful for spinners

Talking about the Chennai pitch, since this will be the first match, the pitch will be fresh. But information has been received that both the batsman and bowler will have to face challenges here on March 22. Well, if seen so far, the pitch of MA Chidambaram Stadium is very helpful for the bowlers, especially the spinners. The ball rotates quickly on the Chennai pitch, so it becomes challenging for the batsmen to play their shots easily. In such a situation, don’t be surprised if there is no big score in the first match and the bowlers perform charisma here.

The team whose spinners will do wonders will contribute significantly to the victory.

Spinners have often decided victory or defeat on MA Chidambaram’s ground. This is the reason why you will see many big spinners in the CSK team. From CSK, Ravindra Jadeja, Rachin Ravindra, and Moeen Ali can make important contributions to their team’s victory. If we talk about RCB, they have bowlers like Glenn Maxwell and Karn Sharma, who can turn the game. It remains to be seen what is there to see in the first match.
