The Dubai International Cricket Stadium is all set to host the high-voltage Pakistan vs India match, and fans are eagerly awaiting the clash. 

However, there are concerns about the weather in Dubai. Currently, strong winds blow through the city in the evenings, but the real question is whether rain will disrupt the match on Sunday. Several fans have been asking about the weather forecast for the day.

Dubai experienced rainfall on Tuesday, February 18, which raised doubts about the India vs Bangladesh match on Thursday. Additionally, heavy rain and hail were reported on the highest mountain in the UAE, Jebel Jais in Ras Al Khaimah. However, the weather had no impact on the Bangladesh-India match.

According to the UAE's Meteorological Department, the risk of rain during the Pakistan vs India match remains, with the forecast predicting cloudy weather and light rain on Sunday night and Monday morning.

Weather experts believe that if it does rain in Dubai, it will likely be for a short period, meaning the match is less likely to be affected.

The daytime temperature in Dubai will reach 33°C, while the night will be cooler at 20°C.

It’s important to note that under the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 rules, there will be no reserve day for group stage matches. 

Fans are hopeful that despite light rain, the Pakistan-India match will go ahead without disappointment.

The much-anticipated high-voltage clash between Pakistan and India will be played tomorrow, Sunday, 23rd February.
