Today's CSK vs SRH pitch report
According to Samuel Badree, the surface looks very dry. There's a mosaic underlay. There isn’t that sheen that you have come to expect in this year’s IPL, he added.
The surface is the same one that was used in the game against GT where CSK scored over 200 runs. Badree feels there will be assistance for spinners and those who can bowl slower balls but concluded that runs can be scored here.
