The match will be held at the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) with weather conditions likely to be normal. However, there is a bit of worry with skies remaining overcast prior to days before the game.

There are chances of rain playing spoilsport again. It rained in the city of Sydney on Tuesday. The Australian MET department predicts the weather to be slightly clear during the IND vs NED match on October 27. 24 degrees Celsius is the forecast predicted during IND vs NED match on Thursday.

It would be interesting to see the changes the Indian team makes for the Netherlands game. There are whispers that Axar Patel may be replaced by Harshal Patel. Without a doubt, India would be overwhelming favourites in that game at the SCG, but they cannot take the Dutch lightly. 

The pitch conditions will favor the batters and therefore runs can come in a flurry. Pace attacks can take a hit with spinners likely to play a crucial here. As the match progresses, the pitch is likely to open up thereby chasing will be the perfect option at this pitch.
