We forecast that both teams will want to field first before this match since they both enjoy chasing and because dew is expected to fall in the second half of the evening.
In Birmingham, Saturday night’s cloudy skies are expected to bring the temperature down to a maximum of 17. Rain will not be a factor in this match.
The grounds crew at Edgbaston consistently creates a decent surface that enables the ball to get through quickly and also gives the strikers room to make their shots. With a par score of about 200, we anticipate more of the same.
