Colombo Weather Live Updates, Pakistan Vs Netherlands Rain Forecast: Rain threat looms large on the Pakistan Vs Netherlands T20 World Cup match in Colombo. According to the weather forecast, there is nearly an 83 percent chance of rain, with showers predicted during the game as well. This is not great news for Pakistan, for whom every match is a must-win after confirming the boycott of the India clash on February 15. Taking a look at hourly weather prediction, rain chances stand at 40 percent at 1:00 PM, with play set to get underway at 11:00 AM. The chances float over the 40-run mark till 6:00 PM. Thus, if the forecast comes true, a washout cannot be ruled out.
If the match is washed out due to rain, Pakistan’s chances of reaching the Super 8s will take a big hit. Pakistan will play fewer games, and if one game is washed out, they can reach a maximum of five points if they win against the USA and Namibia. The Netherlands can also reach five points, without beating India, if they win against the USA and Namibia. In that case, both teams will be tied on points. Pakistan should have a poor run rate if they forfeit the game, thus Netherlands could qualify ahead of Pakistan due to a better run rate.
