PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

Kerava is expected to have bright and sunny weather with no possibility of rain.  We can expect a full match with no weather interruptions.

Venue Details

The pitch is slightly regaining the balance between the batsmen and bowlers with 150+ runs breached more often in last 3-4 matches. We expect the average runs trend around 150 runs to continue in this match too.

Toss: To Bat

Chasing teams have 3-1 win-loss ratio in last four matches. Considering the whole tournament, they have just 4-12 win-loss ratio which is a worrying factor for chasing teams.
