WPL 2025, 12th T20 Match, RCB-W vs GG -W
Venue: M.Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru
Date & Time: Thursday, February 27, 07:30 PM
Pitch Report: The pitch at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium has so far seen balanced contests, favoring both batters and bowlers. With good pace and bounce, batters can play their shots at will, especially in the powerplay and middle overs. However, bowlers who use variations, whether pacers with slower balls or spinners with flight, have found success. The surface offers some help to seamers, making early wickets in the powerplay crucial. Bowling first remains an advantage, but batters who time the ball well will enjoy batting.
