The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 has reached its crucial Qualifier 2 stage, with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) set to face off against Rajasthan Royals (RR) on May 24th, Friday at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. The match will start at 7:30 PM.

Before the match starts, let us look at the essential ground stats of the MA Chidambaram Stadium in IPL.

Ground Stats of MA Chidambaram Stadium in IPL

The MA Chidambaram Stadium is set to host its first playoff game of the season, Qualifier 2. The last match that will be hosted on this ground is the IPL 2024 Grand-Final.

In the last match on this ground, Chennai Super Kings defeated the Rajasthan Royals by five wickets.

Considering the historical contests hosted at this location, the pitch is anticipated to lean in favour of bowlers, especially spinners. Renowned for its spin-friendly traits, the surface provides substantial grip and notable turn. This attribute might present a notable hurdle for batters, hindering their ability to execute shots precisely. The spin and grip are expected to restrict scoring chances, potentially resulting in a game where bowlers take the spotlight.

The MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai has seen 83 IPL matches to date. Of these, teams batting first have clinched victory 57.83%, while teams chasing have won 42.17%, suggesting a advantage for those teams who bats first at this venue.

The overall statistics show that, unlike most venues, the chasing team has not much enjoyed success at this Stadium.
