Pitch Report
A relatively high-scoring game beckons at Basin Reserve despite there being some help on offer for the bowlers. Although the pacers should get some swing early on, the batters should enjoy the bounce off the surface. As the match progresses, the pitch can slow down and bring the spinners into play. As has been the case in this World Cup, wickets in hand are key, with both teams likely to prefer batting first upon winning the toss. Although 250 should be a good total, both teams are well and truly capable of crossing the 260-run mark.
