Challenges in Playing the Match

The field umpire is going to check whether it is possible to play the match between Afghanistan and New Zealand at 3 pm. A final decision will be taken regarding the match. But looking at the dampness on the outfield, the match seems to have become more difficult.

Although Tuesday is a sunny day, it is taking time to repair the damage caused by the rains of the past few days. As a result, the match could not start. The New Zealand team enjoyed a game of rugby ball considering the delay in the opening match. But on Tuesday, the team preferred to stay at the hotel.
