Abhishek Sharma is back and India to reveal the mysterious slingshot
Interestingly, former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali said that he was actually hoping for rain. He said on the TV show: “My prayer is that the Almighty will make it rain,” and when asked if he wanted the whole match to take place, he repeated: “I want rain.” His comments surprised many fans as most people want to see the full game.Each team must bat at least five overs for a match to have a result. If rain interrupts play before then, the match will be abandoned and both teams will receive one point each, as there is no reserve day in the group stage. Currently, India and Pakistan are tied on points at the top of their group, with India ahead on pure run rate. If the match is played, both teams are likely to qualify for the next round.The weather forecast shows a high chance of rain during the day and a lower but still possible chance in the evening. It is expected to be cloudy, wet and windy, which may complicate the situation for players and organizers.While fans are hoping for a full match, rain remains a major threat and Basit Ali’s unusual wish has added another twist to the hype surrounding this rivalry.
