COLOMBO: After witnessing a washout in the group stage, arch-rivals India and Pakistan will be up against each other for the second time in the Asia Cup 2023 on Sunday.
The intriguing Super 4 battle will be hosted by the iconic R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
Pakistan has showcased scintillating form in the tournament, occupying the top spot in the Super 4 points table. They crushed Nepal in the tournament opener before putting up an impressive bowling performance against India in Pallekele.
Following the abandoned fixture, the Men in Green thrashed Bangladesh by seven wickets in the first Super 4 game in Lahore.
On the other hand, India are high on confidence after defeating a spirited Nepal team by ten wickets in their final group-stage game. Fans are anticipating another high-voltage clash to grace the Asia Cup on Sunday.
However, unfortunately, the weather in Colombo could play spoilsport in the game, with rain looming large over the much-anticipated encounter.
Weather forecaster Accuweather shows that there will be showers around the time the game gets underway at 3 PM local time (2:30 PM PST).
Indian spinner R Ashwin has provided us with an encouraging update from Colombo. The good conditions in the city are continuing at the moment.
That’s as pretty a morning as one can get for an #INDvsPAK clash.
