Afghanistan vs New Zealand: Greater Noida weather report

All things are set at the Greater Noida Sports Complex, which is set to host one-off Test between Afghanistan and New Zealand. But how will the weather be in Greater Noida?

The monsoon-packed September season in India is set for many Test matches. Before the Indian cricket teams start their Test campaigns, Afghanistan and New Zealand will face each other in India at the Greater Noida Sports Complex, also known as Shaheed Vijay Singh Pathik Sports Complex, from September 9 to September 13.

This will be the first Test encounter between these two sides. Afghanistan, currently ranked 12th in the ICC Test rankings, is newer to the Test arena compared to New Zealand, which is ranked 5th. The match is important for both teams to make an impact in Test cricket. How the pitch conditions behave will be crucial, but most importantly, the weather in Greater Noida over these five days will play a significant role. So, what will the weather be like?

AFG vs NZ weather report

Talking about the weather in Greater Noida for the upcoming Test match, we can expect several variations. Since it is the monsoon season, cloudy weather is anticipated throughout the day. The temperature may rise above 30°C in the morning but is expected to decrease as the day progresses, potentially falling to around 26°C.

There is a 10% chance of rain, which could disrupt the balance of the game. Thunderstorms are not expected on September 9 (Monday, Day 1), but rain and thunderstorms may occur from Tuesday to Friday, bringing increased humidity if the rain persists for an extended period.

It will be interesting to see how the conditions affect the match if the rain does not stop. Afghanistan, with their spin-heavy attack, might benefit from the moisture in the pitch, while New Zealand’s pace bowlers, like Tim Southee and Matt Henry, could also create significant impact, especially in the first two days of the game.
