The training sessions of Pakistan and Australia have been canceled due to rain at the Pindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi.

According to details, both sides had to take part in the last training session today as the first Test will start from tomorrow.

Meanwhile, it is also likely that the rain is also likely to spoil the Test series opener. The forecast is clear for the first two days of the five-day match but light to moderate showers are expected on the last three days.

Remember, Pakistan hosted its first Test after the gap of 10 years in Rawalpindi back in 2019 against Sri Lanka. The rain completely spoiled three days and the play was only possible on day one and five of the Test match.

It must be noted that Australia will play three Tests, three ODIs and a T20I against Pakistan. Rawalpindi will host the Test series opener and white-ball leg while Karachi and Lahore will host the second and third Test respectively.

Australia, under the leadership of Pat Cummins, arrived in Islamabad on February 27.
