Only one WODI was played at the venue in the last decade, a high-scoring contest between England and Australia. If conditions remain similar, expect teams to prefer batting first, as Australia successfully defended 282 to win by three runs in that previous clash.
Spinners are likely to be the key wicket-takers, having accounted for 11 wickets compared to just three by pacers in that match.
