CSK vs SRH: Chepauk Pitch Report
The surface at Chepauk Stadium is expected to be balanced and consistent with its behavior throughout the season. Bowlers are likely to get some assistance early on, while spinners typically come into play during the middle overs. Dew has been a significant factor in Chennai, often influencing match outcomes. As a result, captains winning the toss are likely to opt to bowl first if dew is expected.
The average first-innings total this season at Chepauk is 162 runs, and we haven’t seen many high-scoring games so far. Matches have generally been tightly contested, offering a fair challenge for both batters and bowlers. Statistically, CSK has lost 3 out of 4 matches at Chepauk this season, which SRH will look to capitalize on.
CSK vs SRH: Live Weather Updates
The day is expected to be hot and humid, with temperatures rising from 31°C to 33°C and humidity levels around 80%. These dry and humid conditions are favorable for bowlers, particularly spinners, who are likely to find assistance during the middle overs.
However, the hot and humid weather also means that dew is expected later in the evening, which could make batting significantly easier as spinners may struggle to grip the ball. Overall, given these conditions, it’s advantageous to bowl first and make the most of the spin-friendly surface early on. Fans attending the match are advised to stay hydrated throughout the game.
