Chinnaswamy Pitch Report

The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium is the best venue for batting in the Indian T20 League. Runs flow at this venue as the pitch is flat and boundaries are pretty small. There is not much help for the bowlers off the wicket and the ball comes onto the bat nicely. The highest score here is 263 runs. The 190+ mark has been breached 27 times. The average first innings score (164 runs) is proof of how good the pitch at Chinnaswamy is for batting.

Best D3 Picks for Chinnaswamy

Faf du Plessis: Faf du Plessis will be one of the best D3 picks for matches at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. He is an experienced campaigner and is currently one of the best batters in T20 cricket. Faf plays in different leagues and has been very consistent in the last few months.

He has scored 409 runs in 12 innings at an average of 37.2 and his strike rate is 143 in 2023. Faf won the orange cap back in 2021 when he used to play for Chennai. Faf is a must in your Rario collection ahead of the Indian T20 League 2023.

Wanindu Hasaranga: Wanindu Hasaranga will be an excellent pick despite the Chinnaswamy stadium being a graveyard for the bowlers. Hasaranga is one of the best bowlers in T20 cricket. He is a genuine wicket-taker and bowls very economically as well.

He picked up 22 wickets in the last edition of the Indian T20 League in 16 innings at an economy of 7.54 and was the 2nd highest wicket-taker of the season. Hasaranga is capable with the bat as well and can score some runs if he gets the chance to bat. Don’t forget to get his card ahead of the upcoming season.

Glenn Maxwell: Glenn Maxwell has been a very very important player for Bangalore in the last couple of seasons of the Indian T20 League. The Aussie star is one of the best batters in world cricket when on the song and he’s capable with the ball as well.

He scored 513 runs in the 2021 season and 301 runs at an average of 27.4 and a whopping strike rate of 169.1 in the last season. Maxwell is a key batter in the middle overs and he can fetch plenty of points for you in the D3.
