The pitch will be made of red soil, unlike Kolkata’s black soil. So, the wicket is expected to bounce a bit more and will aid the pacers. Though, as is the feature with every wicket in India, spin will come into play, from the third or the fourth day.
As per Accuweather, there is a 25 per cent chance of rain in the city, for the first two days of the Test match, while it remains clear for the remainder of the encounter. But rain is not expected to play a spoilsport in the entire game.
