The surface at Greenfield International Stadium is good for batting. We have seen patterns of scoring 180-plus totals while batting first. Trivandrum almost chased a 200-plus total. Surface is giving full assistance to the batters. Overcast conditions can give pacers a slight chance with the new ball. In the last five matches at this ground, the average first batting score in T20 is 182. It is a good T20 batting surface where batsmen need to play aggressively.
Score prediction:
If Ripples bat first - 190-200 runs
If Globstars bat first - 160-180 runs
In the last five T20s on this surface, chasing sides won three times. Overcast conditions can allow pacers to take assistance with the new ball. We might also get a revised total in the 2nd innings. Both teams have had earlier success while bowling first and they will look to bowl first in this fixture as well.
Toss Prediction: Globstars to win the coin toss.
Alleppey Ripples enter this contest as the favourites to win this match. They are a complete T20 side. They are unbeaten so far in the Kerala Cricket League. This is also a crucial match for both teams as both teams would eye to take top spot in the points table.
Alleppey Ripples to win.
