The R. Premadasa Stadium is known for its relatively large boundaries and a surface that historically assists spin as the game progresses. With a 3:00 PM local start, the afternoon heat will be a factor, and the pitch is expected to be at its flattest during the first innings.

Australia's Adam Zampa and Ireland's Ben White are expected to be the key figures in the middle overs. The weather in Colombo is forecast to be partly cloudy with temperatures reaching 30°C, though late afternoon showers are a frequent possibility in the region.
