Indian wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik also offered fans a positive weather update in Colombo ahead of the much-anticipated Asia Cup Super Four clash between India and Pakistan. India and Pakistan will lock horns in their much-anticipated Asia Cup clash in Colombo. The excitement and anticipation for the clash is even more after their Group stage match was washed out due to rain. India scored 266 in their innings with top knocks from Ishan Kishan (82) and Hardik Pandya (87) but the rain gods did not let any further action take place.
"Weatherman DK" took to Twitter to share pictures of the sky, which Karthik feels is decent enough to give fans a "cracker of a game". He is part of the commentary team for the tournament, having last played an international match during the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia last year. The weather is way brighter, open with no big signs of rain though there are clouds. Notably, it did not rain during yesterday's Super Four clash between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.
