“Just landed in Colombo. Excited about Pakistan vs India. Weather looks quite amazing,” the caption accompanying the video read. “Landing in Colombo after, God knows, how many years. But good to be back here. Great country and great people. And Weather… it looks fine!,” he said in the video.

In the Super 4 stage of the Asia Cup 2023, India is set to encounter Pakistan
In the highly anticipated India vs. Pakistan Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 match, cricket fans are eagerly awaiting a clash of titans at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Sunday, September 10th, at 3 PM IST.
Rain could potentially disrupt the game, as it did in their previous group stage match, which ended in a no-result with each team gaining a point. In case unfavourable weather disrupts play during this particular game, it will resume on September 11 from the exact point of suspension.
This decision received significant backlash, as no other Super 4 stage matches were granted a reserve day. Social media users swiftly called for equal treatment of all Asia Cup matches.
