RCB vs KKR - Pitch report

Ian Bishop and Sunil Gavaskar on today’s pitch: It’s hard but there are areas over here. When you look at the good length spots, some of these cracks over here, when you touch, they are a little bit loose. If the spinners keep landing the ball over here, it’s going to come apart a little bit and get you a little more turn. We hope there’ll be no dew interrupting.
