Today's CSK vs RR pitch report

“It’s a warm evening. This wicket looks very similar to the last game (DC vs GT). There was some rough, and we thought there was going to be some turn. But, at most, it was about an inch or so. There is a slight bit of grass, but it looks very similar to the last game. Put runs on the board.” - Simon Doull and Graeme Swann
