RCB vs CSK Pitch Report, Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru

Chinnaswamy Stadium is a batting paradise for batters in the IPL. Teams have often preferred chasing at this venue given the history of the ground. The ground is a lot smaller with shorter boundaries than most other grounds in India. This is what makes this venue a six-hitting feat for the batters. However, for this particular contest, there is a prediction of rain and hence teams would like to chase as they would like to know the target that they are chasing.
