Hyderabad Weather: India will lock horns with Bangladesh in the third and final T20I at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Saturday (October 12). The Men in Blue have won the first two T20Is of the series implying the final game of the series will be inconsequential as far as the result of the series is concerned. While there will be eyes on the pitch, the weather will also be a factor in the minds of the captain when they sit out to decide their Playing 11s for the final match of the series.

If Google Weather is to be believed, Hyderabad has an 80% chance of precipitation on October 12 which means there is a good probability of the final T20I being a rain-affected match. That also suggests that the captain winning the toss might want to bowl first on this surface despite it proving to a be a good ground for the team batting first in IPL 2024. Forecast on Accuweather also does not depict a good picture with the city expected to be under cloud cover, with chances of rain.
