India and Australia will meet in their ICC ODI World Cup 2023 opener at the M. A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Sunday.
This high-octane match marks a swift reunion, as the teams meet up just ten days after their recent three-match ODI series in India, with the host winning 2-1.
Despite the excitement surrounding this clash, there’s an ominous threat looming over the event – the possibility of rain. The weather report has raised slight concerns, leaving fans and players anxiously keeping an eye on the skies.
While there have been unpredictable thunderstorm activities in the city over the past two days, several weather forecast portals are suggesting little to no rainfall for the afternoon in Chennai during a 2 p.m. start for the match.
