Asia Cup: India vs Pakan Super 4 match to have a reserve day | Cricket News
The Super 4 match between India and Pakan will have a “reserve day,” the Asia Cricket Council has said in a statement. India and Pakan are scheduled to face off in Colombo on Sunday, and there is uncertainty if there will be a full contest this time as the met office predicts thunderstorms and rain from late Saturday night through the whole of Sunday.
The Super 4 stage of the Asia Cup which will feature an India vs Pakan fixture is scheduled to be held at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Sunday. But over the weekend and Monday, Colombo has been witnessing heavy rainfall, which has prompted the ACC to add a reserve day.
“If adverse weather suspends play during the Pak vs India game, the match will continue on 11th September 2023 from the point it was suspended,” ACC said in a statement.
In such an eventuality, ticket-holders are advised to hold on to their match tickets which will remain valid and will be utilised for the reserve day.Most Read

Two of the three matches held in Pallekele were rain-affected, with the highly-anticipated India-Pakan clash being abandoned after one innings. There is also anxiety over the six matches scheduled in Colombo at the business end of the tournament, starting Saturday, as the forecast is not great for the next 10 days or so either.
The ongoing Asia Cup which is being played in a hybrid model in Pakan and Sri Lanka has the all important Super 4 stage coming up starting from Saturday.
The event hosted Pakan is also being played in Sri Lanka after India’s refusal to cross the LOC.
