Pitch Report
So far in the WPL 2024, the M Chinnaswamy Stadium hasn't given the kind of high-scoring surfaces that they are known for. Teams have struggled to score runs and there has also been a lack of intent to score runs from most of the teams, especially in the powerplay. Both teams have some explosive batters in their ranks and if they can make good use of the hard new ball and the field restrictions in the powerplay, there is a good chance of seeing scores in excess of 170.
