There is no provision for ‘Reserve Day’ in this Super 4 match between India and Bangladesh on Friday. Both teams need to play a minimum of 20 overs each for it to constitute an ODI match. If the match is washed out due to rain both India and Bangladesh will receive one point each.

India’s Group A match against Pakistan at the Pallekele International Stadium in Kandy was the only Asia Cup 2023 completely washed out by rain so far. The pitch at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo has seen plenty of matches over the last week and has been under cover for long periods of time as well. It will be slower in nature and should assist the spinners as it did in the India vs Sri Lanka contest on Tuesday.
