Pitch Report And Weather Report:
Pitch:
Wanderers pitch is a fast-bowling pitch. It is the fastest pitch in South Africa, but I’d recommend the team which wins the toss should elect to bat first because then if they get a good start they can score runs and get their team off to a good start. Then they can take advantage of the pitch and bowl good and get the opponent out and if they set a good 300-400 run target they are most probably guaranteed a win if their fast bowlers utilise the pitch to its fullest. But whatever I am saying may not be correct because both teams have good bowlers, so the match can go towards any team’s advantage at any time.
Weather:
The weather there is very cloudy, so the possibility for rains to interrupt the match is highly possible. But let’s hope nothing like that happens.
Prediction:
After the kind of thrashing, India gave South Africa of course the favourites will be India, so of course, we are picking India. But I don’t think this time it will be such an easy win. This is because South Africa have to fight for their streak against India. India has never won a Test series in South Africa. So I am sure South Africa will give a tough fight in this Test match. Good Luck To Both Teams.
