Weather Report:
In contrast to Bangalore, the weather in Ahmedabad appears far more promising. According to weather reports, the forecast for Ahmedabad is sunny throughout the day. This sunny outlook is certainly great news, and it bodes well for an uninterrupted and enjoyable cricket match.
Pitch Report:
As so often in Ahmedabad, the soil type will be a key factor in how the pitch plays; black soil promises slow and low, and red soil promises quick and bouncy, or so the lore goes. At least there won’t be any of the smog concerns that are dogging the build-up to Bangladesh-Sri Lanka in Delhi. A toasty 35 degrees is promised by day in Ahmedabad, with some prospect of dew under lights in the evenings – although England, in particular, has been caught out by that assumption before.

Prediction:
Our choice for this match is Australia. England’s performance in this World Cup has been far from impressive, and even Ben Stokes, in his own words, has acknowledged their struggles. In contrast, the Australians have staged a commendable comeback and currently hold the third position in the points table. This shift in momentum favours the Aussies, making them a strong contender in the upcoming match.
