RCB vs RR, 42nd Match, IPL 2025: M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru Pitch Report
If the last few games played here are an indication, we can expect another balanced pitch. It won’t be tilted in favour of batters, with bowlers also having a say.
The two-paced wicket should give some extra carry to bowlers. While the boundaries are shorter here, batters might struggle to fetch them. But things might be slightly easier in the second half as dew settles on the ground.
