PAK vs SL Weather Report: The win against the Netherlands wasn’t the most convincing but an inconsistent and mercurial Pakistan will still fancy their chances against a bruised and battered Sri Lanka in the World Cup match in Hyderabad on Tuesday. Both sides especially Sri Lanka will want to win the match to move ahead in the competition. Meanwhile in this article, we will take a look at the conditions and weather report for the match.
Pakistan arrived in India after an Asia Cup campaign that exposed the chinks in their armour, but playing in the land of their arch-rivals is an opportunity for their players to become national heroes overnight, and they must be motivated by that thought. Having done just enough to get the better of the Netherlands, Pakistan would be keen to raise their game against the Islanders, who are plagued by problems of their own.
The 1996 winners are coming off a thrashing at the hands of South Africa who created a plethora of records with the bat the other day. What could stand Sri Lanka in good stead is that, unlike the Pakistanis, a lot of their players are familiar with the Indian conditions, having regularly played in the Indian Premier League, and they would look to use that to their advantage.
PAK vs SL Weather Report:
The weather for the match is expected to be clear with absolutely no chance of rain. There will be hazy sunshine but the humidity level is expected to be high. The new ball bowlers are expected to get minimal swing with the bat. However, the wicket is expected to assist the spinners once the ball gets old.
