The pitch at the National Stadium in Karachi is a great pitch to bat on as the ball comes very nicely on the bat hence, enabling the batters to hit across the line a lot more. As the match progresses the pitch becomes even more better to bat in under lights as there are chances of dew coming in later. The Team that wins the toss will look to bowl first on this pitch.
The weather in Karachi will be hot & humid for playing Cricket. The temperatures will hover around 30°C, and there is no chance of rain on the matchday.
The South African Cricket team has a better chance of winning this match as they have a great ODI record against Pakistan in ODI's.
