It's that time of the cricketing calendar where fans simply can't afford to let even a
minute of action slip by. India and Pakistan are set to face each other. It is after
nearly a year that the two Asian cricketing giants will be on the same pitch, looking to
outdo each other. But, other than their batting and bowling skills, a third factor could
have a bigger impact on the game, deciding which team to favour, or worse, to let
the match even take place or not.
As per a report in Accuweather, there will be intermittent rain almost all throughout
the day. The match is scheduled to start at 3:00 PM IST. But, it is going to be hard
for the groundsman to prepare have the stadium ready for cricketing action by that
time as rain is expected to take place at the venue since morning.
The chances of rain at Pallekele are 84% during the day. To be more specific, in the
morning, there's a 60% chance of rain in the city. Even in the afternoon, there
remains 60% chance of a downpour. In the evening, the chances increase to 65%.
Overnight, the chances of precipitation further increase to 69%. Hence, while there
may be moments in the match where rain would not happen, wet conditions on the
ground are likely to hamper the playing time too.
