Match Details, Semi-Final
IND Vs AUS
Date: March 4
Stadium: International Stadium, Dubai
Time: Toss – 2:00 pm, Match Start – 2.30 pm
Pitch Report
Dubai’s pitch used to be helpful for fast bowlers, but in the Champions Trophy, spinners dominated the pitch. Pace bowlers dominated in the first innings and spinners in the second innings. In the 3 matches of the tournament, the team batting first won 1 match and the chasing team won 2 matches.
However, if a team wins the toss and bats first on the Dubai pitch, it can benefit. No team has been able to score more than 250 in the tournament here. In such a situation, if the team batting first scores 265 or more, it can be the winning score.
Weather Update
There is no chance of rain in Dubai on Tuesday. The temperature will be between 21 and 29 degrees Celsius. The wind will blow at a speed of 27 km per hour. There is no chance of dew at night.
