Pitch Report

The captain winning the toss will want to bat first as the teams defending the score have done well so far. With the game being an afternoon encounter, one can expect fair amount of heat to be present on the ground. This will be a huge amount of issue for the bowling team as the weather does get better towards the second half of the game.
