Weather Report
The weather forecast for the matchday is not expected to be perfect. The chances of rain are quite high that might even abandon the game. The wind is expected to blow at a rate of 13 to 16 km/hr. Meanwhile, the temperature is expected to deviate between 22 and 27 Degree Celsius throughout the day according to Accuweather.
Pitch Report
The surface at the Drummoyne Oval is expected to go in the favour of the batsmen. In two out of the three games of Marsh Cup on this ground were high scoring. But, due to the overcast conditions on the match day, the fast bowlers will certainly get some help from the wicket on the matchday. The side winning the toss will most probably look to field to be on the safer side.
Average first innings score: 292 (last two completed matches during Marsh Cup 2019)
Record of the chasing teams: Won – 1; Lost – 1
