The Chepauk pitch is famous for being slow and having a low bounce, which can be challenging for batsmen to score runs on. To be successful on this pitch, batsmen must heavily rely on their technical skills. In contrast, spin bowlers may find this pitch favorable as it has a tendency to assist spin, providing them with an advantageous playing condition.
