Venue: Niranjan Shah Stadium, Rajkot
Timings: 7:00 PM (IST)
The pitch at the Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot is one of the best batting pitches in the country. However, the pitch is expected to be a little slowish as a Ranji game between Saurashtra and Delhi recently concluded, But it won’t be slow enough to stop batters from scoring fours and sixes at will. The team that wins the toss is likely to have a bowl first
The weather in Rajkot is expected to be hot and humid, with the temperatures hovering around 32°C degrees. There is no chance of rain on the matchday.
The Indian Cricket team has a better chance of winning this match as they are very good in their home conditions as compared to the English side.
