T his season of the IPL is more than ⅓ done. This time there have been quite a few low scoring games this IPL already. Out of 21 games played, 9 games have been under the score of 150 runs scored by the team batting first. In the previous season ,11 out of 60 games were under the score of 150 by the team batting first. There is a huge difference in the way the Indian Pitches are playing versus the UAE pitches.  6 out of the 9 games of the low scores were played in Chennai however in the 2019 season only 3 out of 8 games played in the M. A. Chidambaram Stadium was lower than that score. So have the conditions changed or are the bowlers getting better and better. While 150 is not a bad total, it is below par to what these batsmen could do. Also In 2021,3 out of those 9 games were won by the team batting first despite setting the low total. Hence if the batsmen are unable to chase these totals too,this means that the bowlers are doing a good job which makes the season even more exciting
