Looks like a nice batting track tonight. Expecting a high-scoring game. You've got to be able to adapt quickly (to conditions). Hopefully we can do that as a batting unit and put up a good score. Anything 170-plus is what we're going to be striving for. No changes in the team.
Gardner, GG skipper
We are going to bowl. Feel like there will be help for bowlers early on. Feels good and we got a good welcome. It's a different kind of motivation to play at home. We had a couple of net sessions and our preparation has been good. Two changes - Mcgrath and Saima out. Voll and Gouher are playing
