Weather - The weather at the Chennai during the game is expected to be mostly cloudy. The highest temperature during the game will be around 25°C as predicted by AccuWeather and there is no chance of any rain.
Pitch Report - The pitch at Chepauk generally favours the spinners. However, during the IPL 2024, we saw that the wicket had good pace and bounce and the batters enjoyed the surface.
