PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

 The weather on the matchday does not look promising with around 70-80% chances of rain. We expect the weather to make some interruptions of play in this match.    

Venue Details

Kerava Stadium seems to be one of the pitches where batsmen have struggled to score runs freely. The overcast conditions will help to generate seam movement for the bowlers. We can expect average scores in the range of 130-140 runs here.

Toss: To Bat

Teams batting first have won all the three matches played so far. The pitch slows down and becomes tough to bat on in the second innings.
