NZ vs AFG Weather & Pitch Report
MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chepauk, Chennai
Clear
Pitch Condition: Average
The MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai is usually a spin-friendly pitch. In T20 matches, the conditions don't favour batsmen and fast bowlers fully because of the slow pitch. Fielding first is often a better choice here, though chasing can also be competitive. Batsmen need to play cautiously to score well. The average first innings score in the IPL is about 160, and in T20Is, around 170.
