Asia Cup 2023 high-voltage game between India and Pakistan is the most anticipated fixture in cricket this year. After a four-years gap, these two neighbouring countries will be taking each other in an ODI at Pallekele Cricket Stadium in Kandy on Saturday. Pakistan will be playing their last league encounter in group A of Asia Cup 2023, while India will be opening their campaign against Pakistan on Saturday. Pakistan thrashed Nepal in their opening encounter in Multan, they won the game by a huge margin of 238 runs. Now, according to weather reports, Pallekele’s weather might play a spoilsport for fans in the upcoming India vs Pakistan encounter of Asia Cup 2023.

There are high chances of rain because of the delayed monsoon in Sri Lanka. Kandy also saw a bit of rain on Thursday during the Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh encounter and is expected to see a few spells of rain once again on Saturday. It will be a 3 PM start, radar predicting the start might be delayed as Kandy will witness showers around 3 PM. Later in the evening, after 8 p.m, there are high chances of a long spell of rain in Kandy until 11 p.m. Wet weather will be a cause of concern for the Sri Lanka Cricket Board throughout the entire tournament, as Sri Lanka will be hosting nine games in the tournament.
