The much-awaited India vs Sri Lanka Asia Cup 2023 final, which will take place on September 17 at the R Premadasa International Stadium in Colombo, has left cricket enthusiasts clutching their excitement. After a largely dry day on September 16, weather predictions for September 17 have alarmed both fans and athletes.
Multiple cancellations of the Asia Cup this year have been attributed to bad weather, with the Super Four stage, which is mostly held in Colombo, taking the brunt of the precipitation. On September 17, Colombo is expected to have a nearly 90% probability of precipitation, according to AccuWeather. A 99 percent cloud cover is anticipated to envelop the city.

Given the difficulties of chasing a target in a match influenced by weather, the team winning the toss will be faced with a difficult choice. Both teams will also be keeping a careful eye on the climate in the days leading up to the toss because they are aware that heavy rains have the power to drastically alter the pitch's characteristics.
