The field for the match this afternoon will likely be a classic Chepauk spinner’s paradise. With the game kicking off at 3:30 PM, the sunlight will heat up the pitch sufficiently, resulting in the pitch becoming very dry and perfect for spin from the very first delivery. Since there won’t be any dew, the side going in first will set a score near 170-180, a total that might win the game. Spin bowlers who are able to hit the surfaces will be the main wicket-takers on this day.

Bowlers: Noor Ahmad, Mohammed Shami, Ravi Bishnoi
Captain: Sanju Samson (CSK) – The ease with which he flicks the ball to the boundary, coupled with his recent form (87 in the last match), is the reason why he is highly likely to be picked for this pitch.
Vice-Captain: Mitchell Marsh (LSG) – After scoring a marvellous hundred, he can just crush the ball out of the park to render the pitch irrelevant during the power play.
Noor Ahmad (CSK): A fatal weapon on the Chepauk turf; his left-arm odd spinner is difficult to distinguish in the glare of the sun in the afternoon.
Rishabh Pant (LSG): Not only a prompt leader but also a fiery wicketkeeper-batter who enjoys playing under pressure.
Shivam Dube (CSK): The best off-spinner eater in the middle overs is an indispensable element for scoring at this stadium.
Mohammed Shami (LSG): Even on windless pitches, his seam delivery can create movement. Because of this, he is a danger with the new ball.
