Pitch report

The Pallekele stadium's pitch has been favourable towards batsmen in the first two games. Although it presents a subtle deviation from the typical Pallekele pitch, it doesn't completely disregard spinners. In fact, it aids them significantly as the game advances. Especially in the second innings, the ball seems to turn more, creating trouble for batters on certain occasions.

Weather report

There are chances of rain again spoiling the match, as there are 23% chances of precipitation for the match tomorrow. Meanwhile, 97% chance of cloud cover as well. 

The temperature is expected to range around 22 degrees, along with some strong gusts of winds traveling at 33 km/h. The intense gusts will possibly become a game-changer - batters might strategise to align their shots with wind direction, using it to their advantage.
