NZ Vs Aus 2nd T20 pitch and weather report
The pitch at the Bay Oval was good to bat on in the first match and it is expected to be batting friendly even for the second game. However, the pitch might have something for the fast bowlers in the initial overs and the conditions could assist swing. Spinners will not get much assistance, but can use the strong breeze that is quite a prominent factor.
The match might be interrupted by rain as there is 71% chance of rain during the match in Mount Maunganui. The maximum temperature is predicted to be 17 degrees Celsius, while the minimum temperature would be 16 degrees Celsius
