Pitch reports and weather
Between 11 and 15 June, there will be an overcast (cloudy) situation and there is a possibility of rain. The bounce on the pitch is good, which will help the fast bowlers. Swing will also be seen due to wind blowing.
The batsmen will have to be cautious on the balls going out, but the outfield is fast, which can easily get the fours. If a team scored more than 350 runs in the first innings, then it can get an edge in the match.
