Match Prediction Best Odds
West Indies vs Afghanistan Toss Prediction
The surface at Daren Sammy Stadium in St Lucia generally offers an even contest between bat and ball. However, with showers predicted, the track might contain moisture, tilting itself slightly into the bowlers' favour. There could be some assistance for the fast bowlers early on, with the ball seaming around due to the moisture. However, the conditions will eventually ease out, and the batters can capitalise on the track's pace to get some runs under their belt. The spinners will also be in the game, getting a hint of turn throughout the match. The toss winning captain should opt to bowl here first.
Weather Report
It may rain in St. Lucia on June 18. The temperature will peak at 32 degrees Celsius on the day.
