IND vs PAK T20 World Cup: ‘No rain so far’ – Fans in anticipation after change in Melbourne weather

The match between India and Pakistan in Melbourne on Sunday has been a major talking point on social media, and so has been the weather. Ahead of the first match of the T20 World Cup 2022 for India and Pakistan, the weather in Melbourne was expected to take centre stage as early weather reports suggested rain could play spoilsport. 

However, much to the delight of fans, there has been a significant improvement in Melbourne weather conditions, with rain much less likely, and the showers haven’t poured down so far on the matchday. 

As soon as the news broke out on Twitter, fans were elated and they were all hoping that rain indeed does stay away so that fans can witness a full 40-overs contest.
