Weather and pitch report
Headingley is a pitch that is a prime batting ground with the average score at the venue being 176. In spite of the pitch suiting the batsmen, the overcast conditions should help the fast bowlers. With the ball set to come nicely under lights, chasing will be preferred upon winning the toss by both sides on Thursday.
