Wankhede Stadium-Pitch Report
The Wankhede stadium will assist the batters and this pitch will be the same however considering the match played earlier the team batting first has put-up a score only 157 runs by the Mumbai Indians which by par the lowest score on this wicket and CSK chased down this score comfortably and won the match. So, if Mumbai Indians wanted to win this match against KKR, they should bat first and score atleast 190-210 runs to defend the total. This pitch will assist spinners but it will be a belter for the batsman to play his stokes in this wicket.
