Lord’s in London has been a balanced venue in the shorter format with something in it for bowlers. Batters can still put on big totals as the average first innings score of 172 suggests. The team winning the toss is likely to opt to field first.
The weather forecast looks clear for this fixture with rain unlikely to pose any threat and the temperature around 15 degrees Celsius.
