Pitch Report: The M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru has hosted three games thus far. 180 is the average score after one inning. The chasing teams have won two of the three games. RCB was unable to chase down a 182-run target against the Super Giants in the previous game played at this location. Because defending totals is so difficult at this ground—where the boundaries are small, the outfield is swift, and the pitch stays the same for the entire 40 overs—the captain who wins the toss will prefer to bowl first.
