The Super Four stage of Asia Cup 2023 has started with fears that upcoming matches may ruined by rain after weather services predicted downpours for the next 15 days in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
The Asian Cricket Council (ACC) has decided that matches will not be shifted from Colombo despite knowing that the rain can disrupt Super Four matches.
If the remaining matches are washed out by rain, Pakistan, who defeated Bangladesh by seven wickets, will qualify for the final. India and Sri Lanka have 3 points each with the same net run rate. A coin base toss will decide the finalist team.
