India and Pakistan are set to take center stage in the 2023 AFC Asian Cup Super Four on September 10 at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.

Unfortunately, the forecast for September 11 is worse than the day of the game. It will be interesting to see what the rain gods have in store for the high-octane clash.
