Pitch Report
At Boland Park, the field is a well-balanced track. Because the ball tends to hold a little bit on the surface, spinners will play a big role when bowling on this track. The batters may target the pacers, as we might see.
Weather Forecast
On Monday, both sides will see clear skies, and Paarl’s temperatures are expected to be between 18 and 33 degrees Celsius.
