Hampshire vs Somerset Pitch Report

The pitch at Rose Bowl Cricket Ground has something in for the bowlers and the batters. With shorter boundaries, batting may prove to be a very rewarding experience at first. But as the game progresses, the pitch may begin to grip and assist the slow bowlers.

The average first-innings score on this ground is 163 and the teams batting first have won on more occasions (40) as opposed to teams batting last (21). Hence, it will be a wise decision for either captain to put enough runs on the board to skittle the opposition out of the attack.


Hampshire vs Somerset Weather Report

The weather at Southampton is going to be nice and bright with temperatures rising to as high as 24 degrees Celsius during the day. However, the temperature is going to drop as low as nine degrees Celsius when night approaches.

It is going to be a fairly windy day with wind speed expected to reach 13 km/hr while the chances of rain are down to 0% at present.
