On the other hand, Nepal come into the match after thrashing Mongolia and Maldives in the qualifying matches. Let us take a look at the weather report for the match slated to be played on October 3 at the Pingfeng Campus Cricket Field, Hangzhou.
India vs Nepal Weather Report:
According to weather reports, there is a minimal threat of rain and the skies will be clear during the match time. The temperature will range in the mid-20s, making for favorable conditions. However, the new ball bowlers might obtain some swing thanks to strong wind blowing around during the match.

The pitch at Pingfeng Campus Cricket Field lacks pace and the ball often keeps low, making it tough for run scoring. However, a set batter should not find it hard to score here. Small boundaries also make a huge difference in the match as the captain winning the toss might prefer to have a bowl first and chase the total later on.
