Weather Conditions
The Selangor Turf Club in Kuala Lumpur is a relatively small ground with a slowish pitch. Fast bowlers have had success here, while spinners will enjoy the slowishness of the surface during the middle phase of the innings. The shorter boundaries make scoring runs easier once batters get their eye in. The pitch does tend to become easier for batters in the second innings.
The weather in Kuala Lumpur tomorrow will be mostly cloudy and warm. A couple of thunderstorms are expected later in the day, which could impact the game.
