A multi-format series between India women and South Africa women will get underway on Monday at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. It will begin with a three-match ODI series, followed by a Test match and three T20Is.

Among many superstars, Smriti Mandhana, who recently helped Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) win the Women’s Premier League (WPL) title, will be particularly in focus. The likes of Harmanpreet Kaur, Renuka Singh Thakur, Shreyanka Patel, Jemimah Rodrigues, and Shafali Verma, among others, will look to take the maximum advantage of the familiar conditions in order to get going with a winning outcome.

Before the two teams face off, let’s take a look at how the pitches in Bengaluru have behaved in the past.

M Chinnaswamy Stadium Pitch Report

As we all know, M. Chinnaswamy Stadium is a venue where batters tend to score runs for fun. The pitches are as flat as a road, while the boundary size becomes comparatively smaller here, making it a high-scoring stadium.

Bengaluru hosted a women’s ODI last time in July 2015, that too three times in five days against New Zealand. On all three occasions, the chasing side emerged victorious, indicating that dew might come into play, and batting looks much easier under the lights.
