RCB vs LSG Match Pitch Report
The M. Chinnaswamy stadium is known for its batting-friendly surface, which makes it easier for the batters to score runs. The ground has short boundaries, ranging between 55-59 meters behind the square, 58-65 meters in front of the square, and 68-71 meters straight. This makes it a perfect ground for batters to play their shots and score quick runs. However, the surface may also provide some assistance to the spinners during the game, which could pose a challenge for the batters.
