Considering the fact this is a knockout game we believe both sides to have a passive approach and total runs in the game would be low.
As we have stated earlier we expect this to be a low scoring game as both sides have a terrific bowling attack especially in the middle overs, it could play a vital role in this game. Considering all the facts that have been stated earlier, we believe the total boundary count to be low in the upcoming game.
