Grace Road Cricket Ground Pitch Report

We can expect a fair contest at the Grace Road ground as the pitch has a tendency to provide something for both the batters and bowlers. As the match unfolds, batters will gradually be able to cut loose, but the initial overs could favor the bowlers. The pitch’s evolving nature might also favor spinners as the game progresses. Past statistics from this ground indicate that the teams bowling first have had greater success winning 11 out of 20 games. With the average first innings score being around 218, anything beyond that score will be a match-winning total on this venue.

Who will win today’s match between Leicestershire vs Gloucestershire

Leicestershire’s commanding performance and direct path to the semis make them favorites. However, Gloucestershire possesses a 3-2 win record against Leicestershire in List A Cricket. Besides, there is a slim possibility that Gloucestershire’s resilience and momentum could tip the scales in their favor. We can expect a nail-biting thriller in this important clash but given Leicestershire’s red-hot form in this season, they may have the upper hand.

What are LEI vs GLO Fantasy Tips?

Miles Hammond looked in explosive form in the last game and scored an unbeaten 109 to floor Lancashire in a ruthless fashion. He should be a key component of your Dream11 lineup.
Wiaan Mulder can be a very useful customer with the bat and the ball in hand. He scored a well-compiled 51 (74) and finished with figures of 1/34 in his 10 overs.
Rishi Patel barely averages 15 in his last 4 games and therefore it is highly advisable that you refrain from him while structuring your Dream11 batting order.
