The Asia Cup 2023 has invoked its reserve day as the highly anticipated India vs. Pakistan clash has been rescheduled for tomorrow (September 11).
Colombo witnessed persistent rain that disrupted the first inning. Pakistan opted to field, and India managed to score 147 for 2 in 24.1 overs before the rain intervened. The unrelenting storm and heavy downpour in the Sri Lankan capital significantly impacted this much-awaited encounter. Following a brief hiatus, the match was initially rescheduled to resume as a 34-over side match at 9 pm.
However, the rain resumed, leading to the postponement of the match to the reserve day.
Unfortunately, due to persistent rain and a wet outfield, today’s highly anticipated cricket match between arch-rivals India and Pakistan has been called off. However, fans need not be too disheartened, as the game has been rescheduled for the reserve day, set to commence tomorrow (Monday) at 3 PM IST. The match will continue with India at 147/2, ensuring a full fifty-over clash.”
