They lost the toss and were asked to field first. The performance of their bowling unit was good and they leaked 155 runs in 20 overs. They used six bowlers and almost each and every bowler from their side performed well. Jackson Bird was the most successful and highest wicket-taker from their side picking three wickets in four overs against 26 runs.

We had observed in the previous matches played here that the pitch here at this venue is good for batting. The track is slower than the others we have seen and helps the spinners quite a bit. We are hoping that the surface is bound to get slower and be a bit more difficult for batting in this match. A score of 185 is going to be tough to chase.
