India vs Afghanistan Weather Forecast and Pitch conditions: World Cup 2019

The unbeaten Indian cricket team is set to face the Afghanistan who are yet to open their winning account in the ICC World Cup 2019 on Saturday at Southampton. India has shown a lot of promise in all the three departments and hence been in top in all the matches they played so far. Different players have turned up in different games, making Men in Blue a very strong side.

Afghanistan, on the other hand, hasn’t lived up to the expectations. They lacked control and consistency, making them look fragile. However, there is no denying that the Afghan side is full of talent and they can unleash at any moment.

Knowing Afghanistan could be a hard opposition to deal with on a given day, Indian skipper Virat Kohli remarked that India is not going to take them or any other team easily in the tournament. Meanwhile, let’s look at the weather report and pitch conditions for this match.

 

Weather report

The sun is finally going to dominate Southampton tomorrow. The weather forecast predicts no downpour in the Rose Bowl, which means there would be a full game of cricket and no rain interruptions. The temperature is expected to go from 15 to 19 celsius at the venue.

Pitch conditions

Like the other venues in England, the strips in the Rose Bowl are mostly flat and batsmen enjoy playing there. Pertinently, the ball might come nicely onto the bat when India takes the field against Afghanistan tomorrow. We could witness another high-scoring match for sure.
