With the chance of rain being 30-50 per cent, interruptions are likely – but play will take place. Rain is expected at 5 PM and that could get the match truncated, which would not be ideal considering this is the year of the ODI World Cup and all teams would like to do their final tuning with months to go.

The Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy Stadium in Vizag is considered to be batting-friendly and hence a high-scoring affair is on the cards. The stadium has hosted 14 ODIs so far, out of which, the team batting second has won nine games. This clearly shows that it is a chasing ground.
