IND vs BAN: The 2-match Test series to be played between India and Bangladesh is starting from Thursday (September 19, 2024). The first match of the series will be played at the M Chinnaswamy Cricket Stadium in Chennai. Fans are eager to know whether the ground will help spinners more or fast bowlers in the upcoming match. If you also have the same question in your mind, then Aham has brought the answer to it.
M Chinnaswamy Cricket Stadium, made of red soil, has always been a stronghold of bowlers. Especially fast bowlers are seen in a different style here. The reason behind this is that in the initial days, fast bowlers get a lot of bounce and swing from the pitch. At the same time, as the session of the game progresses and the pitch starts breaking. After that the havoc of spinners also increases.
