Shreyas Iyer’s back spasms caused India to make one forced change to their starting lineup, and KL Rahul was inserted in his stead. In the continental tournament, India and Pakistan have faced off against one another 18 times. In these games, Pakistan has triumphed on six occasions while India has won nine of them, with three of the matches ending with no clear winner. Before the rain came, Rahul batted for 28 balls, hitting 17 runs (including two fours). If the weather permits, it will make for a fascinating scene when he returns to the plate.
