Pitch:
The Rose Bowl in Southampton offers a balanced pitch, making it a medium-scoring venue where both pacers and spinners can find assistance. While batters can settle in for runs, bowlers especially those disciplined with line and length have the potential to dictate terms and dominate phases of the game.
Weather:
The temperature hovers around 24°C with 70% humidity under cloudy skies. A 20% chance of precipitation means rain interruptions are unlikely, but the overcast conditions could provide some early movement for the seamers.
