CSK vs SRH Match 43 IPL 2025: Pitch Report at MA Chidambaram Stadium
The Chepauk pitch has behaved differently this season. In the first innings, the pitch has generally been bowler-friendly, especially in the middle overs when the ball gets hard and old and it is not easy to score boundaries. Batsmen have struggled to score boundaries during this stage and have usually had to make do with strike rotation to keep the scoreboard ticking.
But the second innings has seen a big difference. With the lights on, the pitch is a bit flatter and the ball comes on to the bat well. This has allowed batsmen to play more aggressively and look for scoring opportunities, and hence chasing has been better here in recent matches. In such a situation, in today’s match also, the team winning the toss may choose to bowl first.
