MA Chidambaram Stadium Pitch Report: Is The Surface Batting Or Bowling Friendly?

The pitch at MA Chidambaram Stadium has offered a balanced contest between bat and ball so far in the IPL 2025. While the fast bowlers might get a hint of swing in the air with the new ball, the spinners will definitely get some turn in the middle overs. 

In fact, the spinners have bagged more than fifty per cent of the total wickets at MA Chidambaram Stadium in the IPL this season. 

So, the batters must be careful with regard to their shot selection. Players, who have a solid command over text-book stroke-play (example- Rachin Ravindra) will likely succeed at this venue. 

The average scoring rate of 8.35 signifies that the pitch at Chepauk has something on it for batters as well as the bowlers. However, unless the track is very dry, expect the toss-winner to bowl first.
