Everyone is eagerly waiting for the India-Pakistan match. But, rain can become a villain in this great match to be held in Melbourne. In fact, 80 percent rain has been predicted in Melbourne on 23 October. In such a situation, the India and Pakistan match can get washed away in the rain. However, the drainage system at the Melbourne Cricket Ground will be fine and if the rain is less then the match can be played in full.
