Gloucestershire vs Middlesex outfield report

College Ground, Cheltenham

Each team aspires to score more than 170 runs, win the toss, and bat first.

It is predicted that there will be a gentle breeze and mild rain for the game.

It is expected that the pacers will benefit from the surface. The first game of this season will take place on a brand-new, spicy pitch. Still, once the ball becomes a little older, hitting will get easier. One could classify a score of 170-180 as competitive.
