🔍 Pitch Report – Balanced, but Chasing Favored
The Chinnaswamy pitch has been relatively balanced but tilts slightly towards batsmen, especially in the second innings. Pacers have had a better fantasy return compared to spinners, particularly in the death overs. Build your fantasy team accordingly – target chasing team’s top 4 batters and at least 2 death-over pacers.
