BAN vs SL: Injury-prone Sri Lanka are all set to battle against Bangladesh at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Sri Lanka. On Thursday, August 31, match 2 of the competition will serve as Bangladesh and Sri Lanka's Asia Cup 2023 openers. This article will lead you to the BAN vs SL weather forecast and pitch report of Pallekele Cricket Stadium.

Sri Lanka are not in good shape, to be honest. The matchup between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka on Thursday is a highly fascinating one. Although Sri Lanka may have easily through the World Cup qualifying rounds, they will have a far stiffer struggle here. The fact that Bangladesh defeated Sri Lanka in a bilateral series for the first time the last time they faced them would only boost their self-confidence.



Sri Lanka's bowling assault has been totally ruined by injuries. Wanindu Hasaranga, Dilshan Madushanka, Lahiru Kumara, and Dushmantha Chameera are on the list of those who are now unavailable. To put things in perspective, they are their three regular seamers, who can all reach speeds of over 145 kph, and their ace legspinner, who just put on as impressive an all-around team performance in the Lanka Premier League.



On the other side, Bangladesh will be attempting to escape the shadow cast via their veterans, whose overreliance on them has historically caused them problems. The services of Litton Das will be missed. Thankfully, there are a number of fresh names to stake a claim. The Asia Cup squad includes five players from the winning Under-19 World Cup squad, and how Bangladesh handles their development might make or break their prospects.



Amid thundershowers, this competition will be quite interesting and vital for both teams. Down below is the BAN vs SL weather forecast and pitch report of Pallekele Cricket Stadium:

The chances of rain are high at 70% during the day and around 20% at night on the match day. The humidity exceeds 75% in the daytime and 80% at the night and winds will gust toward the South-West at the speed of 12kmph during the day and 8kmph during the night.

The batters have a clear preference for the surface at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium. The bowlers will have little to no help early on in the game, so the hitters will try to control the action. But things might turn around and fast bowlers might get a swing moment in the air, as the weather is going to be overcast. The surface will, however, become slower as the game goes on, giving the spinners more to work with. The captain who wins the toss may thus choose to choose to bowl first at this field.



However, Pallekele's playing grounds have demonstrated something in the recent past for both bowlers and hitters and this time around, anticipate more of the same. Ibrahim Zadran scored 162 in the last ODI played here, Rashid Khan claimed four wickets, while Kasun Rajitha finished with 3 for 60.

IND vs PAK: India vs Pakistan is here in just a couple of hours! Scheduled to get started at 3:00 PM IST, India and Pakistan are all set to lock horns in a high-voltage, action-packed competition. The match is also under threat of clouds and here we discuss the IND vs PAK Weather Forecast And Pitch Report Of Pallekele Cricket Stadium.



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><h2>Jump To:</h2><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#ind-vs-pak-weather-forecast">IND vs PAK Weather Forecast</a></li><li class=""><a href="#ind-vs-pak-pitch-report-of-pallekele-cricket-stadium">IND vs PAK Pitch Report Of Pallekele Cricket Stadium</a></li></ul></nav></div>



This weekend, at the Pallekele Cricket Stadium in Kandy, an ODI between these two nearby nations will be played for the first time in four years. On Saturday, India will begin their campaign against Pakistan, while Pakistan will play its final league match in group A of the Asia Cup 2023. In their first match, which took place in Multan, Pakistan dominated Nepal, winning by an enormous margin of 238 runs.



India and Pakistan don't play often against each other but this time in this tournament, there are high chances that India and Pakistan might clash three times. However, according to the weather forecast, which calls for scattered thunderstorms and light rain throughout the day, round one of the meeting of the heavyweights may end uneventfully. The most recent ODI match between these two teams took place in the 2019 World Cup. Should the weather ever let it, the weekend game may likewise be a cut-down affair.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2023/09/kohli-rohit-shaheen-rauf-getty_1693443127135_1693443132962-1.jpg" alt="IND vs PAK Weather Forecast And Pitch Report Of Pallekele Cricket Stadium | India vs Pakistan Asia Cup 2023" class="wp-image-118727" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">IND vs PAK (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



Pakistan's Asia Cup campaign got off to a confident start as they won easily owing to strong innings from Babar Azam and Iftikhar Ahmed and some sharp bowling. They have already ensured that their performances in these circumstances are noted since they are armed with a capable and competent bowling force.



However, there were a few worries. The Pakistani batting order was held in check by Nepal for the majority of the game after Fakhar Zaman's failure at the top of the order, before Babar and Iftikhar propelled them to a significant total. Despite taking a few wickets, Shaheen Afridi wasn't in the greatest of rhythms and required some care near the boundary lines, which Pakistan will be praying doesn't develop into something more significant.

IND vs NEP: Match number 5, it is India vs Nepal! India and Nepal are all set to lock horns against each other for the qualification decider match at Pallekele Cricket Stadium. Rain played the spoilsport during the much-hyped India vs Pakistan match and now, we will walk you through the IND vs NEP Weather Forecast And Pitch Report Of Pallekele Cricket Stadium.



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#ind-vs-nep-pitch-report-of-pallekele-cricket-stadium">IND vs NEP Pitch Report Of Pallekele Cricket Stadium</a></li></ul></nav></div>



As the World Cup draws nearer, teams are competing for limited game time. During the previous two T20 World Cups, India's major players either missed out due to extended injuries or were often rested. And the Sri Lankan monsoon isn't helpful in that regard. Now, IND vs NEP is also under threat of rain as rain is forecasted for the match day.



Due to personal issues, Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah flew back to India from Sri Lanka and would not be eligible for selection in India's second Group A match against Nepal at Pallekele. Bumrah might be replaced by Prasidh Krishna in the starting lineup for India.



The high-stakes contest between India and Pakistan ended in disappointment for the supporters of both countries as rain repeatedly interrupted the game until it was ultimately called off. Some supporters went so far as to criticize Asian Cricket Council (ACC) Chairman Jay Shah for picking Sri Lanka as the alternate venue despite forecasts calling for rain at this time.



Nepal won't want to go home without facing off against the best players from India. This might be their greatest game ever, with millions of viewers, if the weather cooperates. Just two months prior, a Rohit Paudel-led Nepal squad played an IPL-heavy India A team in Colombo and was thoroughly defeated.



This World Cup is the least of Nepal's concerns. They will have an eye on the next 14-team edition of 2027. And it is not every day they get to play against the big boys of international cricket at full strength.

According to weather.com, on September 4 (Monday), it will be an overcast day and thundershowers are predicted throughout the day. The temperature of Lanka?s Pallekele city will be 26? C during the day and drop to 21? Celsius at night. The sky will be cloudy throughout the match.



The chances of rain are moderate at around 25% during the day and as high as around 70% at night on the match day. The humidity exceeds 75% in the daytime and 90% at the night and winds will gust toward the Southwest at the speed of 20kmph during the day and 11kmph during the night.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="ind-vs-nep-pitch-report-of-pallekele-cricket-stadium">IND vs NEP Pitch Report Of Pallekele Cricket Stadium</h2>



The Pallekele International Cricket Stadium's surface is clearly preferred by batsmen. Early in the game, the bowlers will have little to no assistance, therefore the hitters will attempt to dominate the play. However, given that it will be cloudy, things might shift around and fast bowlers could have a swing moment in the air.



But as the game progresses, the surface will slow down, allowing the spinners more room to operate. Thus, on this field, the captain who wins the toss may decide to bowl first. On this pitch, hitters that can rotate strike well will fare well.
