Rain could play spoilsport during the upcoming T20I series between Pakistan and New Zealand.
The first three matches of the series will take place in Rawalpindi, where rain is expected throughout this week.
According to The Weather Channel, on April 18, when the first T20I is scheduled, the chance of rain is 60 percent during the day and 80 percent at night.
There is also 84 percent chance of rain on April 20, which is the day of the second T20I.
However, the chance of rain on April 21, when the third T20I is set to take place, is considerably less at 20 percent.
Remember, Pakistan's training session today was postponed due to ongoing rain.
New Zealand's squad touched down in Islamabad on Sunday, meanwhile Pakistan team has also assembled in the federal capital after Eid-ul-Fitr holidays.
After the first three matches at the Pindi Cricket Stadium, both sides will move to Lahore, where they will play the remaining two T20Is of the series on 25 and 27 April, respectively.
All five matches of the T20I series will start at 7:00pm (PST).
