GROS ISLET – England will take on South Africa at Gros Islet, Saint Lucia today in Super Eight ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
The match will start at 7:30 PM Pakistan Standard Time.
The pitch offers good bounce and carry, along with some grip, which has benefited spinners, as seen when England faced West Indies. A potential variable is the timing of the match since previous games were played at night, while this one will take place in the morning.
The weather forecast predicts rain over the weekend, but Friday’s outlook is clear and humid, with temperatures reaching up to 31 degrees.
