VC lean — after toss The other innings. Do not stack C and VC on the same six overs.
Tuesday 6 October is the first of five T20Is against West Indies, Ekana Stadium, Lucknow, 7:00 pm IST. BCCI listed Lucknow, Ranchi, Indore, Hyderabad and Bengaluru for 6, 9, 11, 14 and 17 October.
A large Lucknow outfield under lights often means dew later and a used T20 strip that gets slower. Write the venue: new-ball seam for six, then a middle that can grip. If the outfield wets, chasing sides keep wickets.
Toss still decides the shape. Bowl first on a used strip is not the same eleven as chase-with-dew. Keep one credit until both XIs are out.
Captain (2×) last. On a chase, the opener who sees the new ball is the common 2×; vice-captain (1.5×) a bowler who will drag middle-to-death — or the reverse.
