Pitch Report and Conditions
The 8th match of ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is going to be played at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore. 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 more than 300 is going to be tough to chase.
Weather Report for Today Match
The weather forecast for Lahore is not good this cricket match. There are some chances of rain but we are hoping for a full and completed match. We are hoping that this match will also be affected by the rain and the DLS method will come into action.
