Asia Cup 2023: Fans Troll Rajdeep Sardesai For Backing India To Play In Pakistan

Asia Cup 2023: Persistent rains and unfavourable weather conditions have cast doubt on the outcome of India and Pakistan’s much-anticipated encounter in the Super 4 round of the Asia Cup. The relentless rain and soggy outfield have put a shadow of doubt over this big confrontation, as cricket fans across the globe clutch their breath in the hopes of an exciting match.

The game was postponed until Monday because of rain and a soggy field, and the weather hasn’t improved much since then. Rain fell all night in Colombo, the host city, creating the kind of dismal, foreboding mood that cricket fans dread.

Even though there won’t be any chance of precipitation until 4 p.m., things are looking bleak. Humidity levels are predicted to rise beyond 90%, increasing the risk of more postponements due to rain. In the event of a washout, India, which was batting at 147/2 in 24.1 overs when play was stopped, would have to settle for a single point. If this were to happen, the squad would be under enormous pressure to win their remaining matches against Sri Lanka and Bangladesh in order to reach the final. After early wins by both Sri Lanka and Pakistan, competition is strong and the stakes are high.

If play doesn’t restart at 3 p.m., India may start losing overs, but that’s still up in the air. It was not initially intended to include a buffer day in the programme. It was introduced after the previous weekend’s group stage match between India and Pakistan at Pallekele was rained out after just one innings had been completed.

Asia Cup 2023: Fans Troll Rajdeep Sardesai For Backing India To Play In Pakistan

Cricket fans, including well-known individuals like Rajdeep Sardesai, have been discussing and debating this turn of events. He said on Twitter, “As I watch rain having stopped play in Colombo once again, here is a question: wasn’t this a Asia Cup meant to be played in Pakistan? Good weather, flat batting tracks, ideal preparation for the World Cup. We haven’t played in Pakistan since the Mumbai terror attack of 2008. Then, it was the right thing to do. 15 years on, this might have been a good time to get cricket back on track. Either we don’t play Pakistan at all, else we play wherever we have to. This ‘hybrid model’ seems strange. Agree?”

Cricket fans and aficionados have varying responses to Rajdeep Sardesai’s comments. One supporter chimed in with two crucial points: To resume regular cricketing ties with Pakistan, India has set out certain requirements, which Pakistan has failed to fulfil. Consequently, going to Pakistan to play is still a long shot. Turmoil in Pakistan: Concerns have been raised about Pakistan’s ability to host a multi-country event in light of the country’s current economic and political turmoil.

What do you value more, the other fan asked? National interest or cricket match? Relations between India and Pakistan have been tense for a long time due to a number of factors, including but not limited to the 1947 partition and more recent events such as the targeted massacre of Hindus in Jammu and Kashmir. The supporter makes his or her opinion quite clear: Human rights abuses and political conflicts are more pressing concerns than a cricket match.

The India vs. Pakistan Super 4 match is in limbo as the weather continues to dictate terms in Colombo and speculations about the possibility of playing in Pakistan resurface. Cricket fans across the globe are holding out hope for an exciting matchup between two bitter rivals, but Mother Nature has other ideas.
