Rain in Rawalpindi has delayed the start of the Champions Trophy clash between Australia and South Africa. The toss has not been held yet, and it looks like the match will be a short one. Both the teams will get a point if there is no outcome.
Bot Australia and South Africa began their campaign with a victory. Australia beat arch-rivals England, whereas the Proteas registered a win over Afghanistan. Both the teams would wish the match to begin as soon so the winning team could move close to qualify for semifinals.
As everyone waits for the rain to stop, let’s take a look at the weather forecast for Rawalpindi:
It is currently raining in Rawalpindi. There was a 46% chance of rain at 4:00 PM, which goes up to 49% by 5:00 PM. There is a high chance of rain at 6:00 PM, with the percentage being 54% in the evening.
The chances are going to increase up to 69% at 8:00 PM and to 75% at 9:00 PM. All things considered, there are very high chances of rain throughout the day and fans should be ready for the first washout of the Champions Trophy2025.
South Africa will keep their top spot, while Australia will stay at 2nd position if the game is washed out. Both the teams will have three points, but South Africa has a strong Net Run Rate (NRR) of +2.140 whereas Australia has an NRR of +0.475.
