India and Zimbabwe are all set to take on each other in their last respective match of the Super 12 stage on November 6, Sunday.

Nonetheless, Zimbabwe have been in great form this World Cup and they also sprung up a shocker vs Pakistan. So the Men in Blue would be wary of how they handle them.

Before the clash commences, here is everything you would want to know about the venue of tomorrow's match - Melbourne Cricket Ground.

Pitch Report

The pitch at MSG offers true bounce and pace for the seamers but is also a great batting deck. Batsmen get immense value for their shots, although there is an increased focus on running between the wickets owing to large boundaries.

The pitch remains the same throughout the match and it all comes down to the team that bowls better. In some cases though, it has been seen that the deck gets a wee bit slower, which in turn, makes strokeplay a little less easy.

Will Toss Matter?
