PAK vs SA: Pitch Report
The pitch in Chennai helps spinners a lot, which will be a factor in the game. Batting first will be ideal to put runs on the board. But as seen in the last game, it helped both batters and bowlers, so it will be an even contest. The team that wins the toss will look to bat first.
