Mullanpur: India and Afghanistan are going to meet in red ball cricket for the second time in their history (IND vs AFG). India and Afghanistan will play a single Test match in their series from Saturday, June 6 at Mullanpur. Everyone is looking at the pitch, the atmosphere of that match. Let’s take a look at Mullanpur’s pitch character and weather forecast.
On the Mullanpur pitch, spin and fast bowling, both categories of bowlers are supposed to get help at different times. Early on, fast bowlers are expected to bounce the ball well and carry the ball well. However, as the match progressed, the spinners would start to influence the match, maintaining the general character of the Indian pitches.
In the first session on the first day of the match, there is a slight chance of rain with thunder on Saturday morning, but then there is no chance of respite. But the good news is that the drainage system here is very good. So even if it rains, water can be removed from the outfield in just 25 to 30 minutes. Soon the game can start and even if it rains, not much time should be wasted.

Except for the first session of the match, Mullanpur is expected to have fairly clear skies on all five days of the match. In other words, it can be assumed that at least no obstacle will be created by the environment in the daily cricket game. Temperatures are expected to hover around 35 to 38 degrees on match days. Humidity should be around 32 percent. So the players have to face the challenge in summer.
Not a part of the World Test Championship, will the newcomers not be tested in this Test and will India come with a fairly set team? This question is on everyone’s mind.
There is a question mark about which star will bat at number three for India, too. At least Gautam Gambhir put an end to that speculation. After Cheteshwar Pujara, the number three position of the Indian team has become like musical chairs. Karun Nair, Sai Sudarshan combined for a total of seven batters Indian team Played in this place. But no one has been able to establish a place in this place so far. But this time it is not like that anymore. Gambhir informed that Sai Sudarshan will be given some time to prove himself.
