There is no threat predicted from the rain for this match. However, we could see the cloud covering at regular intervals during the day.

Pitch Condition/Report:

The Gymkhana grounds usually have surfaces that witness swing in the first hour and what follows is something really tough for the batsmen. Due to not so long boundaries here, the bowlers could be in for a long day. If the surface looks dry, the first batting side should aim 270+ total.
