While the up-and-down nature of the drop-in pitch at the Nassau stadium continues to invite criticism, fans will hope that rain doesn’t dampen affairs further.
According to accuweather.com, the temperatures are going to remain in the early 20s, but 10:30 am (local time) start may face cloudy conditions and some chance of rain and thunderstorm in the first innings of the match.

Considering that possibility, the team winning the toss will be inclined to bowl first, keeping in mind the tricky pitch and a rain-marred game bringing DLS method into play.
In the two matches playes at the venue so far, teams batting first have failed to reach the 100-run mark. Sri Lanka were bowled out fof 77 by South Afrifa and Ireland were dismissed for 96 by India.
