Pitch for 1st test match in IND vs NZ: Batsmen will score runs in Bengaluru!

Delhi: The three-match Test series between India and New Zealand is going to start from October 16 at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.

At the same time, the New Zealand team has come directly to India from the Sri Lanka tour, where it had to face defeat in the two-Test series. In such a situation, this is a great opportunity for the Kiwi team to make a comeback in the series against India, but the path will not be easy for them on Indian soil. New Zealand may face trouble in Indian conditions, especially against spin bowling.

How could the pitch of the first test match be?

The pitch of Bengaluru’s M Chinnaswamy Stadium is generally considered favorable for batsmen. It is expected to be a flat pitch here, where the fast bowlers can get help from the new ball in the first few overs. Along with this, spinners are also likely to get help in the second innings. Talking about the last four Test matches, the team batting first has got the advantage here, in which three matches were won and one was drawn.

While discussing the weather, there is a possibility of rain in Bengaluru for the next few days. There was heavy rain on Tuesday also, but due to the better drainage system of the stadium, the match is expected to take place. However, due to rain the start of the match may be delayed.
