Visuals from the city have shown rain on the eve of the game and the ground has been fully covered prompting fear if any cricket will be possible on Saturday. According to weather.com, there is 50% chance of rain on the day of the match. However, the forecast gets better during the time of the match. There is a 34% chance of rain at 7:30 but the percentages decrease later in the night.

As far as the match is concerned, India are set to give their bench strength a chance. Assistance coach Ryan Ten Doeschate stated that the Men in Blue wanted to try new faces after winning the series and gave a big hint that Harshit Rana will make his debut. However, he also revealed that Sanju Samson is set to retain his spot in the playing XI despite repeated failures.
