Pitch

This will be the first match of the tournament at this venue. The wicket will be hard and new, which could assist the batters. However, the cloudy conditions and a strong chance of rain could work in the favour of bowlers. An exciting contest between bat and ball is on the cards, provided rain does not play the spoilsport.
