4. Guwahati Stadium Pitch Report

This is new stadium and has hosted only two international matches so far. But the Baraspara Stadium pitch could offer the players a slightly better run-making facility. But even then a total in the vicinity of 160 could see some tight chase.

5. Guwahati weather

The temperature at Guwahati is pegged to be at 28 degrees during the match hours. But a heavy 99 per cent cloud cover is predicted on that night with 6 per cent chances of thundershowers. Hence, we might just see some rain interruptions or delayed start on October 2 but the Assam Cricket Association officials have said that they are fully prepared for any situation arising out of nature’s fury.
