Chepauk Chennai weather forecast for IPL 2023 Qualifier 1: Will there be dew?
Very high humidity levels of about 75% are expected for Tuesday evening according to World Weather Online. This, in combination with clear skies, means that there is a chance of dew.
In five night games at Chepauk this season, the average first innings score is 167.4. Interestingly, the team batting first won three of those matches, which could tempt MS Dhoni or Hardik Pandya to bat first. However, CSK given their ability to defend, are more likely to choose this option. GT are a magnificent chasing team and may look to take advantage if given the opportunity.
The winner of Qualifier 1 progresses through to the IPL 2023 Final. Gujarat Titans are gunning for their second title in only their second season, while Chennai Super Kings have visions of a fifth title – a record currently held by Mumbai Indians, who have also qualified to the playoffs.
