MIW vs GGW: Weather & Pitch Report
The weather in Navi Mumbai is expected to be stable during the match. The temperature will be around 26°C with haze clouds. There is no possibility of rain; the humidity will be around 47%, and the wind blowing at 14 km/h will promise undisturbed play.
The pitch at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy generally supports batters, especially in the first innings. However, the pitch can be slightly slow, and the dew factor in the second innings often makes it difficult for bowlers to grip the ball. Because of this, teams winning the toss may prefer to chase. Team balance and handling the dew will play a key role in this match.
