MI vs CSK, 38th Match, IPL 2025: Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai Pitch Report
We might see a good wicket for batters at the Wankhede Stadium for the MI vs CSK game. But bowlers will likely have some say in the proceedings, as was visible in the previous game played here.
The surface will have a consistent bounce with some grass on top. So pacers can extract bounce, while there will be some lateral movement in the initial overs. As the pitch dries down, spinners should get some help.
And as it’s an evening game, dew will come into the picture in the second half, which will make the run chase easy. Thus, teams should decide to bowl first and restrict the opponent to a manageable score.
