All in all, a great game of Test cricket awaits us at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium.

BAN vs WI 1st Test Weather & Pitch Report 

Weather Report 

It will remain sunny on all five days. The temperature will hover around 24 to 26 degree Celsius. The chances of precipitation on all the five days will be around 10%. 

Pitch Report 

Spinners have ruled the roost in the previous Test series and it shouldn’t be any different in this fixture as well. Batsmen will have to bide their time before going big, with wickets in hand being crucial.

The pacers should get the ball to move around, although they could revert to off-pace deliveries.

Batting first would be the ideal option for both sides, with the pitch expected to get slower as the game progresses.
