Zimbabwe vs Ireland outfield report

Harare Sports Club, Harare

The pitch will stay the same during the game, thus both teams will try to chase down the total. The match day in Harare is predicted to be quite cloudy with a chance of rain. However, we only anticipate minor, sporadic delays during the game.

We anticipate that the batters will have some difficulty here because the Harare pitch is on the slower side due to its used character. It will be challenging to pursue any score higher than 270 runs.

Gujarat Giants Women vs Mumbai Indians Women outfield report

Kotambi Stadium, Vadodara

In the previous two seasons of the competition, most of the teams pursuing the score have won games. Bowling in the second half when the dew is settling is never easy. Without a doubt, the team that wins the toss will bowl first.

We expect clear skies and excellent conditions over Vadodara.

The track was an ideal location for batting since batters could perform their strokes with ease. This wicket has little for the bowlers. The first-inning average at this site is 157 runs. The team batting first should score more than 180 runs.
