In the 20th game of the Czech Republic T10 Super Series, 2020 which will be the fourth and last one for the day the Prague Barbarians Vandals would be taking on the Budejovice Barracudas CC. The Prague Barbarians Vandals are one of the powerhouse of domestic cricket and boast of having some of the biggest names in the country. Budejovice Barracudas CC on the other hand is a young side and it will be a big challenge for them.
The problem for the Budejovice Barracudas CC is the lack of depth in their bowling as they have few bowlers who have played competitive cricket in the past and against a strong side like Vandals this will be a huge test. The Vandals wouldn’t like to take on their opponents lightly though as one bad over can turn the course of the match in this format.

Weather Conditions
There are predictions for overcast skies over Prague on June 27. The heavy conditions would make it a tough wicket for the batsmen who will have to be watchful playing their strokes. The odd ball skids on and this is something that will aid the bowlers. A score of around 90 runs would be a fighting total on this surface.
Venue Details
Vinor Cricket Ground, Prague is a small park with thick grass cover. Batsmen who play the long ball have done well here as the grass cover doesn’t allow too many boundaries. Fast bowlers have always enjoyed bowling on this surface where they get good bounce and movement with the ball. It is a tough venue for the spinners given the size of the ground.
Toss: To Bat
Win the toss and bat first is usually the mantra in T10 cricket as it offers advantage to the side batting first. We hope to see something similar in this game as well. The side that wins the toss would have little hesitation in batting first and aim at putting the opposition out of the game.
It will be a game between two sides that are on opposite ends of the spectrum. The Budejovice Barracudas CC is a new outfit and hasn’t played too much of competitive cricket. This is something that would be difficult for them to overcome. The Prague Barbarians Vandals on the other hand is an experienced team that boasts of several all-rounders with years of experience in the squad. This will make them the outright favorites to win this game.
