India's World Cup 2019 match against New Zealand was called off due to persistent showers. However, the forecast for Virat Kohli and Co.'s marquee clash against arch-rival Pakistan looks promising at the moment.
"The weather will turn warmer and brighter through the weekend with the return of some sunshine, very welcome after what has been a dull and wet week," a British Met official informed.
"There’ll be some sunny spells on Sunday and it’ll feel warm in the sunshine, with temperatures rising to around 17 or 18 Celsius. A few showers are likely to develop at times though and some of these could be heavy with thunder possible," he added.
India's has had an upper hand over Pakistan in World Cups, with a 100 per cent win record and will be hoping weather doesn't play spoilsport on June 16.
