The first match of the three-match T20 series between Australia and Pakistan has been delayed due to persistent rain at The Gabba on Thursday.
According to a report by The Express Tribune, the toss for the opening T20I of the series has been delayed due to persistent rain, with light drizzle falling in the area since last night.
The chances of playing the first match of the T20 series today are slim, as more rain is expected throughout the day, further complicating the situation. As of now, the covers remain firmly in place over the pitch, with dark clouds hanging ominously over the stadium.
On the other hand, the Australian Bureau of Meteorology predicts further showers starting at 1:00 PM Pakistan Standard Time (PST), raising more doubts about whether the match will start today.
After the rain delay, both teams and fans are waiting for a break in the rain before the match can begin.
