The last which anyone would’ve wanted on the morning of an India-Pakistan Commonwealth Games Women’s Cricket Competition match day was rain to pour down in Birmingham.
With rain gods putting on display an early weather scare some three hours before the start of the match, fingers would’ve already been crossed across the globe for fans were preparing to follow India Women taking on Pakistan Women in a T20I after four years today.
Early morning rain in Birmingham. Need it to clear for the India Pak game. Drizzle now. Key match for Harman’s team.

A primary need for a complete match to happen at Edgbaston on Sunday is that both the teams have started their Commonwealth Games 2022 campaigns with a loss. A rain abandoned match or a loss will make semi-finals qualification for one of these teams almost impossible.
Edgbaston Birmingham weather forecast for today
With rainfall scheduled to pour over Edgbaston this morning, a delayed start might be a possibility. Having said that, weather prediction doesn’t have a place for continuous rain especially throughout the afternoon in the city today. In what is a massive respite assuming the weather forecast holds true, it should allow players to play a full or at least a rain-curtailed match.
