    A look at the key details

    The M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru will host the 2nd Test (2:00 PM IST). The wicket at this venue has been fruitful for the batters. Although the bowlers have little margin for error, it remains to be seen how the pink ball behaves here. One can watch the game live on the Star Sports Network and stream on the Hotstar app (paid subscription).
