Fans on Twitter expressed their disappointment after blockbuster India vs Pakistan clash in the T20 World Cup 2022 faces a potential rain threat. They feel that they will not get to witness the clash in the tournament and urged ICC to reschedule it as they will also face a massive financial loss if the match doesn’t get underway due to rain.
Heavy rain likely to play a part in India vs Pakistan clash in Melbourne
The Super 12 stage of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 is just a few days away from now. Group B will see a high-octane India vs Pakistan clash kickstarting the proceedings. Both the teams have been in fine form and have been putting hard yards in their build-up to the game.
The game is expected to see full crowds as ICC revealed that the tickets for the clash between the arch-rivals were sold out in just 10 minutes. The match between them is always expected to be a high-octane clash and when the last time they faced in the T20 World Cup, it saw the Babar Azam-led side thumping the Men in Blue by 10 wickets.
A similar kind the atmosphere is also expected for the game but to the fan’s fortunes, rain is expected to play a spoilsport in the game between India and Pakistan. The weather department has predicted 80% rain on the game day and there is a high chance that it might get washed out.

I wish there was a solution to rain interrupting a cricket match. Today was a washout, so will be the encounter on 23rd. I waited so long for an Ind vs Pak match in an ICC Event, I don't want it to be abandoned. ICC needs to create a Plan B for every matches.

Its sad that the match between Ind vs pak is going to be washed how…but who is accountable for that???…why always Ind vs pak match has to be played in the places where there are high chances of rain.If match gets reduced or washed out will @ICC refund the money back (1 of 2)
