VENUE AND PITCH

Greenfield International Stadium in Trivandrum is playing host to all the matches in this year’s edition of the tournament. The stadium has seen teams prefer to bat second, with an average first innings score of 145. With rain playing a role in recent matches, both teams will be aware of the possibility, with seamers in particular likely to continue enjoying the conditions.

MATCH PREDICTION

Both teams have shown similar form and will be hungry to start putting positive results on the board. In this match, the slight edge might go to the Calicut Globstars, who have more reliable performers in all departments compared to their opponents. Having shown more consistency and quality so far this tournament, the Globstars are 60% favourites.
