Pitch Report:
Pallekele hosted a game with a relatively high scoring average and little assistance for the bowlers. Even though the pacers have some swing, the batters will try to attack from the beginning. To get the most out of the pitch, the spinners will need to be creative with their lengths and lines. Since both teams are likely to prefer to bat first after winning the toss, wickets in hand will be crucial.
Weather Condition:
At Kandy, it is expected to be partly cloudy, with 90% humidity and a wind speed of 05 km/h. The temperature will be around 23°C, and there is a 71% chance that it will rain during the game.
