Pitch Report
The pitch at Benoni is ideally a good batting surface. It assists the batters in stroke making and lots of runs can be expected. It might offer some help to the fast bowlers early in the innings, but it won’t trouble batters much. Batting second is slightly advantageous on this deck and hence captains to field first.
Weather Conditions
There are clouds expected during the passage of play. The temperature would be around 20 C.
