AccuWeather forecasts indicate that the chances of rain will drop to near zero by toss time (7:30 PM IST). The match is likely to be played under clear to partly cloudy skies, with experts predicting a full 40-over contest. Temperatures during match hours are expected to range between 24°C and 27°C, offering relatively comfortable conditions. A gentle breeze from the south-southeast, around 11 km/h (gusting up to 24 km/h), may provide slight assistance to swing bowlers early in the innings.Dew Set to Play a Big RoleOne of the key factors could be high humidity levels, around 79%, which are likely to result in significant dew later in the evening. This could make it challenging for bowlers to grip the ball, giving an advantage to teams batting second. Although rain is not expected during match hours, the outfield may remain slightly damp due to earlier showers. Ground staff could require extra time to ensure playing conditions are safe, potentially causing a minor delay.
