CS vs ND Weather And Pitch Report

Weather - According to AccuWeather, the weather will be mostly hazy and cloudy. The temperature will be in-between 21°C-10°C and there is 8% chance of rain during the game.

Pitch Report - The pitch can displays some seam movement early in the game, providing pacers with good opportunities to challenge the batters. However, if the batting side successfully negotiates the initial new-ball threat, they can take advantage of the ground’s small dimensions to clear the boundary with ease. Spin bowlers are unlikely to receive much support from the pitch. The skipper winning the toss might prefer to bat first on this ground depending upon the past records.
