Known to be batters paradise in the limited overs format thanks to the flat wickets and the small ground dimension, bowling at the venue has been a bowler's nightmare. But with black soil being used for the wickets recently, there have been some low-scoring games at the venue.

Going by the record in T20s, the chasing team has had a slight advantage on the wickets at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Even the recent WPL, the teams chasing had more successs.
