Toss Prediction Today: Live Cricket Toss Tracker

Our toss prediction today calls what the toss winner is likely to choose, bat or bowl first, for upcoming matches. Nobody can predict the coin itself; it is 50/50. Our model's calls come with their chance, the facts for and against, and the toss time in IST. In men's T20s, 61.4% of toss winners chose to bowl first.

Tomorrow Toss Predictions, Tue 27 Oct 7

Already Tossed: Called or Missed 1

Our model makes a call for every T20 and one-day fixture about two days before the start, and earlier when we publish a match preview for it; Test and T10 matches appear when we publish a match preview for them. We can occasionally miss the second of two games between the same teams on one day, or fixtures whose teams are not yet announced. Every card is a free toss prediction, with no registration needed.

Results usually appear before the first delivery is bowled, although a few take several hours; cards marked "from our match preview" use the prediction published in our match article. Weather data from MET Norway (CC BY 4.0) gives the conditions at the scheduled start and is updated every three hours.

Last 7 Days: Did the Toss Decide It?

Every settled toss from the previous 7 days (45 matches): who won the coin, what the captain decided and what happened in the match. Each line also shows what our match preview had predicted, including the misses. For today's tosses as they happen, see who won the toss today.

Toss winners eventually won 24 of 44 completed matches. Our pre-toss decision calls: 35 of 45 right in this window.

Who Will Win the Toss Today?

Nobody knows who will win the toss today, because it is a coin flip: in a study of 350,757 coin flips, heads came up 50.0% of the time. What we can predict is the next step, which is what the winner decides to do with the toss.

Whether you ask who will win the toss or aaj ka toss kaun jitega, the honest answer remains the same. Any today toss prediction that identifies the coin's winner is only a guess, and anyone claiming "100% sure" toss winner predictions is selling guesses as facts.

Even celebrated captains win only about half of their tosses: MS Dhoni won 122 of his 235 IPL tosses as captain (51.9%).

Today Toss Winner Prediction: What We Can Call

A today toss winner prediction can only guess the coin, so we predict something different: the decision that follows. Whichever captain calls correctly, you will already know the probable decision.

Does It Matter Who Wins the Toss?

Only a little, on average: a 2023 study of 35,357 matches found that toss winners won 39.2% of games and toss losers 37.4%, with the remainder drawn. The same study found the largest advantage in Test cricket, at 4.9 percentage points. In ODIs and T20s it was close to zero on average, except in day/night games, where winning the toss was worth 3.3 percentage points.

How Our Cricket Toss Prediction Works

A toss prediction is a call on what the toss winner will decide: to bat or bowl first. Our cricket toss prediction puts a percentage on that decision. It is an AI toss prediction: our model does the reading an expert toss prediction would, across thousands of past T20 tosses, and each toss preview weighs the facts for and against its call.

What Each Call Weighs

The venue: how often toss winners at that ground have chosen to bowl or to bat. Across all T20s, toss winners bowl first 61.4% of the time in men's matches and 55.2% in women's.

Each call also weighs both sides' recent toss decisions, how captains have chosen in the same tournament so far, and the scheduled start time: day, afternoon or evening.

Then the conditions and the people: rain that could shorten the game, and dew under lights, both push captains to bowl first. We make every call with the weather, the pitch and the team news in mind, including who captains.

How to Read a Card

Each today match toss prediction card follows the same pattern. The coloured words are the call, bowl first or bat first, and the number beside it is the probability that the toss winner makes that decision. The label beside the number indicates how strong the prediction is.

Strong call means 70% or more, Likely 60 to 69%, Lean 55 to 59% and Close call under 55%. How our calls have actually done, toss by toss, is on our public toss record.

The thin bar under the call shows the split: cyan for bowling first, violet for batting first.

The toss time is displayed in Indian Standard Time, 30 minutes before the start, which is the earliest moment the Laws allow. Law 13.4 places the toss between 30 and 15 minutes before the scheduled start.

Why Night Games Lean to Bowling First

Of the tosses graded on our board since 5 September, evening toss winners chose to bowl 69 times out of 91 (75.8%), compared with 108 times out of 228 (47.4%) in day games. The usual explanation is evening dew.

Dew forms when the grass and the ball cool below the dew point of the surrounding air, so it usually appears during the evening. A wet ball is difficult to grip, and Aakash Chopra once compared it to bowling with a bar of wet soap.

That makes bowling second more difficult, so captains who win the toss in evening games frequently choose to bowl first. The 2023 study found the same pattern in match results: winning the toss was worth 3.3 percentage points in day/night ODIs and T20s, and nothing in daytime games.

Today Toss Prediction FAQs

Can you predict a cricket toss?

Not the coin. A fair toss is 50/50, and in a study of 350,757 flips, heads came up 50.0% of the time. You can predict the choice that follows some of the time: in men's T20s, 61.4% of toss winners bowl first. Our toss previews weigh each ground's record, both sides' habits and the start time.

Which team will win the toss today?

Nobody can say before the coin lands; each captain has the same 50% chance. Our toss prediction today answers the next question instead: what the winner is likely to choose.

Aaj ka toss kaun jitega?

Toss ka coin koi nahi bata sakta: dono captain ke paas 50% chance hota hai. Hum yeh batate hain ki toss jeetne wali team pehle batting karegi ya bowling. Aaj ke match ki prediction aur toss ka result Hinglish mein: aaj ka match kaun jitega.

What is the time of toss?

Under Law 13.4 of the Laws of Cricket, the toss happens between 30 and 15 minutes before the scheduled start. Our cards show the earlier time, 30 minutes before the start, in IST. For a 7:30 pm IST start, that means a toss at about 7:00 pm.

Who will bat first today?

The side that wins the toss and chooses to bat, or the side that loses it when the winner chooses to bowl. Each card calls that choice, and a card from our model also gives its chance. Once the toss is published, the card shows what the winner chose and whether we called it.

How accurate are your toss predictions?

Our every-match calls: 199 of 337 right from 5 September to 25 October. Our earlier match-preview calls went 289 of 435 (66.4%). Every graded call is on our public ledger.

Does the toss really matter in T20 cricket?

A little. In our records, T20 toss winners won 5,115 of 10,003 decided games (51.1%). A 2023 study of 35,357 matches found the toss worth close to nothing on average in T20s and ODIs, except day/night games, where it added 3.3 points.

Why do most IPL captains choose to bowl first?

The numbers point to dew. In IPL 2026, 61 of 74 toss winners chose to bowl (82.4%). Evening dew makes the ball wet and hard to grip, which makes bowling second harder. On our board since 5 September, evening toss winners bowled first 69 times in 91, and day toss winners 108 times in 228.

How do you win the toss?

You can't do it on purpose. The captain who calls has a 50% chance, whichever side is called. Streaks happen by chance: Rohit Sharma lost 12 ODI tosses in a row, from the 2023 World Cup final to the 2025 Champions Trophy final, equalling Brian Lara. The odds of that are 1 in 4,096.

Can astrology predict today's toss?

No. Sites selling today match toss prediction astrology, with birth signs or kundli charts, are guessing a coin. A coin's landing is set by physics: how it is flipped, spun, and caught or bounced. A machine can flip a coin to land the same way every time; a human flip can't be controlled that finely, which keeps it fair.

What is a toss in cricket?

Before play, the two captains toss a coin in front of an umpire. The winner chooses to bat or bowl first and must tell the other captain and the umpires. Once told, the choice can't be changed. That is Law 13 of the Laws of Cricket.

That is our toss prediction today: the decision, the probability, the facts for and against, and a record you can check. New T20 and one-day fixtures are added every three hours, so check back before each toss.
