Weather forecast

So far, the T20 World Cup 2022 has been severely affected by rain. However, according to ‘Weather.com,’ there is little to no forecast of rain on Thursday in Adelaide. The weatherman also reveals that it is expected to be overcast for the majority of the day, with a 24 per cent chance of precipitation in the early hours of the morning.

The maximum temperature is expected to reach 22-degree celsius, while the minimum is likely to be 13-degree celsius in Adelaide on the day of the match.

Pitch report

Australia’s Adelaide Oval stadium features shorter square boundaries, which will entice the power hitters from both sides. The Adelaide Oval surface is also considered a batting-friendly field.

However, the bowlers from both teams might also have their say, especially during the early phase of the innings as the straight boundaries are long and would be difficult for the batters to clear them.

Likely playing squads

India: Rohit Sharma (C), KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik, Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Shami.

England: Jos Buttler (C), Alex Hales, Phil Salt, Ben Stokes, Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone, Moeen Ali, Sam Curran, Chris Woakes, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood.
