Will rain become the villain in the India-Pakistan match?
Colombo: The match between India and Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2026 will be played at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. There has been a continuous discussion about this match for the last few months, in which the hype of this match increased even more due to Pakistan team first boycotting this match and then taking a U-turn with their decision. Both the teams practiced at the Colombo stadium a day before this match, in which they also finalized their preparations. At the same time, a big danger regarding this match has also emerged in the form of rain, in which the possibility of cancellation of the match cannot be avoided. In such a situation, everyone’s eyes are fixed on the weather of Colombo to see how it is going to be in the next 24 hours.
There is a possibility of rain throughout the day in Colombo on February 15.
If we talk about the weather in Colombo, Sri Lanka on February 15, according to the BBC Weather report, the probability of rain in the five hours before the start of the match is between 40 to 48 percent. At the same time, when the match was to start at 7 pm, the probability of rain at that time would increase to 57 percent. However, after that it is expected to reduce to about 18 percent. If we look at the report of Accuweather, then according to it there is a 59 percent chance of rain in Colombo till 1 pm, but after that there will be a continuous decrease in it. The probability of rain from 6 pm is predicted to reduce significantly to 9 percent. However, during this period clouds will be visible continuously.
Drainage system is better in R Premadasa
If it rains during or before the start of the match between India and Pakistan and it stops on time, then it will not take much time to prepare the field. The drainage system at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo is very good, in which the entire ground is covered with covers when it rains, which makes it very easy for the ground staff to drain the water from the field and this helps in resuming the match soon.
