Colombo Weather Today: Hourly Rain Update Of Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Asia Cup Super 4 Match
As the contest between the bat and the ball gets fierce with every passing game, it's sad for fans to see rain becoming the third factor in deciding the fate of matches in the Asia Cup 2023. Having already seen multiple matches being affected due to poor weather conditions, the Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Super 4 match in the tournament could also see the rain gods interrupting proceedings in Colombo on Thursday. Pakistan, who have to beat Sri Lanka to qualify for the final, however, will be keeping their fingers crossed.
It's been a tough tournament for Pakistan. While the massive defeat against India severely affected their Net Run Rate, the team also lost the services of ace pacer Naseem Shah for the remainder of the tournament. Naseem had injured himself in the match against India and will now be on the sidelines. On Thursday, Pakistan don't just have to perform at their best but also hope that the weather remains conducive.
As per Accuweather, rain is expected in Colombo for almost the entire day. But, the showers are likely to be intermittent, prompting a stop-start game. A full 100-over contest, however, looks tough.
