IPL 2024 Final, KKR vs SRH: MA Chidambaram Stadium Pitch Report
The uncertainty of dew persists. It stayed away just two nights ago in the second qualifier, but who knows what will happen on Sunday. Even Pat Cummins admitted that there is no reliable way to predict its arrival. The final will take place on pitch number 4, a red soil wicket. This is the same pitch on which CSK lost to PBKS earlier this month, with Punjab spinners Harpreet Brar and Rahul Chahar taking 4 for 33 in their combined 8 overs. On that occasion, dew helped PBKS chase down CSK’s 162/7.
