Pitch Report & Weather Conditions
The pitch at the National Stadium is usually good to bat on. The batsmen will have a good time in the middle once they settle down and can play their shots with ease. That said, the bowlers can expect some help if they pitch the ball in the right areas. The surface could become a bit two-paced as the innings progresses.
The weather will remain warm and there might be some dew on the ground during the second half.

We expect a balanced pitch for this game. That’s why we have tried to select a balanced side that has some in-form batsmen and quality all-rounders. Since the all-rounders are all good spinners of the ball, we have balanced the bowling line-up by selecting 3 seamers in the bowling dep.
