Pitch Report: India vs Sri Lanka: 2nd Test Preview

Pitch Report: Pacers find the pitch of M. Chinnaswamy Stadium quite helpful in the first 3 days as the pitch has a fair amount of grass. But as time passes gradually, the cracks open up on the pitch, and it benefits the spinners. According to past matches and their results, the batters tend to score a lot during the first 3 days. The match starting tomorrow is a pink ball test, hence the team batting will have an additional advantage.

Team News : 1st Test

India:

The men in blue thumped upon the Sri Lankan team in the last test match played in Mohali. Virat Kohli's 100th test match, Jadeja's 175* runs knock, Jadeja's 9 wickets, Rishabh Pant's 96 runs, the last match was indeed a memorable one for the team. Also, after this huge victory, India jumped to the No. 1 spot in the ICC World Test Championship points table.

Sri Lanka:

Sri Lanka slipped from the 1st position to the 6th position in the ICC World Test Championship table. The team needs to gear up for tomorrow's match and show some convincing performances. If they fail to draw or win the upcoming test match, then India will yet again whitewash them following the 3-match T20I series.
