Rain forecast
According to latest weather updates it is shown that there is the rain forecast in this match around 8:00pm(pst) and 11:00AM according to newyork timings. The rain is expected to last for approximately 2 hours, which could result in a reduction of overs in the match. This is not acceptable because India-Pakistan matches are watched by people from all over the world who thoroughly enjoy them. If the match is abandoned due to rain, it would be very disappointing for Pakistan. Especially since Pakistan has already lost its first match against the USA, winning this match is crucial for Pakistan to qualify for the super eight. Similarly, India also wants this match to proceed smoothly and win against Pakistan. This time, India’s team is very strong, excelling in all three departments: batting, bowling, and fielding. On the other hand, Pakistan’s team has been delivering poor performances for the past four months.
Rain effect on pitch
As the New York pitch is very tricky and tough, it is very difficult for batsmen to bat on this pitch. This pitch is a two-paced pitch with a lot of advantages for fast bowlers. Both teams, Pakistan and India, have a good pace attack. After the rain, the pitch will become even more tricky, with a lot of swing. This will create difficulties for batters, and it’s certain that this match will be a low-scoring game.
Toss role in this match
The toss plays a very crucial role in this match. The team that wins the toss will definitely opt to bowl first, and there will be a lot of chances of winning for the team that bowls first. As we’ve seen in past matches at this ground, the team that bowls first usually wins.
