Cut off time for a 20-over game
The cut-off time for a 20-over game is 10:36 PM. India have already batted more than that so if we don't get a game near that time, Pakistan will begin their chase. Long time to go until 10:36 PM but we are optimistic we will get a game soon as there is hardly any rain right now

What happened on September 10?
Let's recap a bit. The original day of the India vs Pakistan Super Four clash ended with 24.1 overs being bowled. Virat Kohli and KL Rahul are unbeaten but the weather did not allow any more game after rain came down around 5 PM. Great efforts were being made to resume the game but even as the rain stopped, the wet patches haunted. The groundstaff left no stone unturned to dry those wet patches but then rain returned and the day was called off.

IND vs PAK again
Hello and welcome everyone. It's a rarity that you wake up to see India vs Pakistan matches on two back-to-back days. A clash which is touted as the biggest in World cricket will unfold again today as rain spoiled the proceedings on the originally scheduled day of the contest. The match has the added privilege of having a reserve day, which allows another chance to have a winner in this great rivalry. But how's the weather on the reserve day of the clash? Stick around as I, Varun Malik, bring you all the latest weather updates of Colombo.
