The pitch at Daren Sammy is known for favouring batsmen, with an average first-innings score of 170. However, it slows down later, making spin crucial in the second half. Overcast conditions and a 40% chance of rain may help seamers early on. Temperatures will range from 27-30°C, adding humidity challenges.
