Weather and pitch report

Tomorrow evening’s clash is expected to be cloudy with a slight chance of rain. But, it will not be enough to see the game washed out, fortunately. The temperature will be around the range of 30 to 32°C.

The MA Chidambaram pitch is also expected to be quite slow with a bit of turn. This was seen in most of the IPL 2019 matches there so spinners will have an absolute blast.
