IND vs. BAN Weather: Will rain become the villain in India's last Super Four match? Know how the weather is in Colombo today.

The teams of India and Bangladesh will face each other in the Super-Four round today. With this match, the Super Four round of the Asia Cup will end. Team India has already reached the final. In such a situation, this match will be for India only to test its preparations before the last. Rohit Sharma and company have been unbeaten in this tournament so far.

After the first match of the group stage against Pakistan was washed out due to rain, Team India defeated Nepal by ten wickets (DLS), Pakistan by 228 runs in the Super-4 match, and Sri Lanka by 41 runs. However, all four of India's partners have been interrupted by rain. Almost every game of the Super Four has been disrupted due to heavy rain in Colombo. In such a situation, there is a possibility of rain disrupting the India-Bangladesh match.  

According to the report of Accuweather, there is a 65 per cent chance of rain in Colombo today. There is a possibility of a thunderstorm there in the morning. At the same time, there is a possibility of showers as well as thunderstorms from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. The sky is likely to remain cloudy throughout the match. There is a 90 per cent chance of grey skies in Colombo on Friday. Fast bowlers may get help due to overcast conditions. However, the events of the entire match getting washed out are incredibly slim. Intermittent rain may cause disruption. There is also a possibility of a reduction in overs and use of the Duckworth-Lewis rule.

The pitch at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo is known to favour the batters. However, as the match progresses, the spinners may get help from the angle. Spinners played a vital role in the India-Sri Lanka match. However, in the game between Sri Lanka and Pakistan on Thursday, the fast bowlers got help, and the spinners were severely beaten. Sri Lanka quickly chased the score of 252 in 42 overs and eliminated Pakistan from the tournament. If it rains, the Duckworth-Lewis rule can be used, and overs can also be reduced. For the result of the match, it is necessary to play the full 20 overs. The final of the Asia Cup will also be played on this ground on September 17.
