“Pakistan-India Asia Cup Clash Scheduled for Monday Pending Favorable Weather Forecast”

To mitigate the risk of rain disrupting the Asia Cup Super Four clash between Pakistan and India, a reserve day has been incorporated into the schedule.

A Rain-Marred Encounter on September 2

Earlier in the tournament, rain played spoilsport in the Pakistan-India ODI at Pallakele Stadium on September 2, leaving the Green Shirts eager for their turn at the crease.

India posted 266 runs before being bowled out in the 49th over, courtesy of Pakistan’s impressive pace bowling.

Weather Forecasts Predict Rain

Weather forecasts for the upcoming clash indicate a substantial likelihood of rain, especially during match hours. This concern has prompted the inclusion of a reserve day.

Exclusive Reserve Day Match

Among the tournament fixtures, the Pakistan-India clash is the sole match, aside from the final, to feature a reserve day.

Cricket Board's Statement

The cricket board has released a statement regarding the inclusion of the reserve day. According to the statement, if adverse weather conditions suspend play during the Pakistan vs. India game, the match will resume on September 11, 2023, from the point at which it was halted.

Ticket Holders Advised

Spectators holding match tickets have been advised to retain them as they will remain valid for use on the reserve day, ensuring continued access to the highly anticipated encounter.
