India Women will take on Pakistan Women in game six of the ICC Women's World Cup on Sunday (Oct 5) at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. India started their World Cup campaign with a convincing victory by 59 runs over Sri Lanka, whereas Pakistan had to face a humiliating defeat at the hands of Bangladesh women. So far, the 'Women in Blue' have an upper hand over Pakistan, defeating them across all 11 outings. However, before the key clash gets underway, the weather gods have different plans for this high-voltage clash.
Will rain affect the World Cup clash?
Fans in India and Pakistan are concerned as Colombo is experiencing thundery showers, light winds, and a 70 per cent chance of rain. On Saturday (Oct 4), the World Cup clash between Australia Women and Sri Lanka Women was abandoned without a ball being bowled due to persistent rainfall.
According to BBC Weather, heavy thunderstorms are expected during the first hour of play, with overcast skies predicted for the entire match duration. If the rain continues, the game faces a strong possibility of ending in a washout.

iPhone 18 Pro could introduce a feature no iPhone has ever had
In rain-affected ICC ODI matches, umpires try to ensure a result by reducing the number of overs, with a minimum of 20 overs required per side. They also use any extra time available on the same day to complete the game. However, if both teams are unable to play at least 20 overs each, the match is called off. Since it is a World Cup league game, there is no reserve day and both teams will have to share a point.
