M. Chinnaswamy Stadium pitch report

The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium is considered to be one of the best venues for batters to succeed. 

Not only are the ground's size and boundary dimensions comparatively small, but the higher altitude of the stadium also aids the ball to travel further than at other venues.

The pitch is typically flat and there dew tends to appear in the late evenings which can help the chasing side. However, since the venue has also seen huge totals, the team batting second can also struggle under scoreboard pressure.
