England faces rivals Australia tomorrow at Lord’s in the match number 32 of ongoing ICC World Cup 2019. The hosts, despite entering the tournament as the hot favourites, haven’t been consistent enough thus far. After losing to Pakistan earlier, they were stunned by Sri Lanka in the last game, making their road to semifinals tough.

While Australia has done quite well as the Men in Yellow have triumphed five out of the six matches. They are currently standing at the second spot in the points table and have good chances of making it to the top four.

The hosts would be hoping to defeat Aussies to strengthen their case for the semis. Though Australia too won’t give it away as they take the field at Lord’s. Before heading to the match, let’s look at the expected weather and pitch conditions.

Weather report

As it mostly remains the case in England, there are high chances of clouds bursting at the Lord’s tomorrow. The weather forecast hints there could be some rain in the morning while temperature would be around 20 to 22 celsius at the venue.

Pitch conditions

The only match played at Lord’s displayed support for blokes with the bat. The ball was coming nicely onto the bat and bowlers weren’t finding it easy to bowl. However, the new ball surely was doing a bit as well as spinning in the latter half of the innings.
