KKR vs SRH IPL 2024 Final Pitch Report

KKR vs SRH Match will be held in the MA Chidambaram Stadium, also known as Chepauk Stadium. It typically offers a spin-friendly pitch with variable bounce. According to the last match of SRH and RR in Qualifier 2, the pitch of the stadium has extra bounce. In addition, there was a hint of seam movement for the fast bowlers as the ball deviated off the track at times. Hence, the pitch is the flavour of the spin department. Spinners play a crucial role here, exploiting the rough patches and extracting turn from the surface. However, early in the game, the new ball can come onto the bat nicely, allowing for some scoring opportunities. However, it will offer a cracking contest for bat and ball. It is good to opt for bat first for the toss-winning team.
