Today's MI vs CSK pitch report
“430 runs were scored last time a match was played on this pitch. The surface looks a little bit drier compared to what we saw on Thursday. The grass covering is very similar in the middle, but the ends near the fullish length are drier. There might be little more spin. Dew could come in, so both teams might want to chase.” - Simon Doull and Michael Clarke
