The finale will take place in the afternoon, which will affect the context of the match. Under lights, the ball gets onto the bat nicely and stroke-making becomes easier while batting second. However, in a day game, as in the finals, batting first is the right choice, since the pitch is dry and the ball doesn't come onto the bat.

This brings spinners into action, and both the teams have plenty of spinners in their tank. The semi-finale 1 between India and Bangladesh at the same venue was a day affair and it was a low-scoring game. Expect a similar situation in the finale as well.

The toss winning captain will most likely bat first, considering the nature of the surface.
