Pitch Report:
The surfaces at the Kensington Oval in Barbados have traditionally been better for batting, especially when compared to the semi-finals in Trinidad and Guyana. However, only two scores of more than 180 have been scored in 15 innings this tournament: Australia’s 201/7 against England and India’s 181/8 against Afghanistan.
Weather forecast:
The start of the game on Saturday may be impacted by stray thunderstorms in the southern Caribbean. Rain is 44% expected, but since there is a reserve day, a full game is quite likely.
