New Zealand vs Pakistan, World Cup 2019: Weather forecast, Pitch conditions

The unbeaten New Zealand side takes on unpredictable Pakistan tomorrow at Edgbaston in the ICC World Cup 2019. The Kiwis have been on top of their game throughout the tournament, winning all the matches so far. Be it in batting, bowling or fielding department, Kane Williamson’s men have been quite consistent and hence troubling the opposition more often than not.

On the other hand, Pakistan has had an uneven journey thus far. They started terribly, made a comeback in the second match, however, they lost a couple of more games before pipping South Africa in the last match. 

The Men in Green must win all the three games including the New Zealand one to keep themselves alive in the tournament while the Kiwis are almost through. Let’s look at the expected weather and pitch conditions for tomorrow’s match.

 

Weather report

Although clouds are expected to dominate the sky at Birmingham tomorrow, there are least chances of a downpour, which means there are unlikely to be any interruptions during the game time. The temperature will be around 12 to 15 celsius at the venue. 

 

Pitch conditions

The strips at Edgbaston hasn’t been much of help for blokes with the bat. The bowlers, especially seamers, liked bowling here and the case could be the case as New Zealand and Pakistan lock horns tomorrow. Both teams have quality bowlers, hence it could be a cracking contest.
