During the initial warm-up match against England, Team India’s captain, Rohit Sharma, won the toss and opted to bat first. However, shortly after the toss, heavy rainfall began at Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati. The city was enveloped by dark clouds, and as a result, the match had to be abandoned.
Although their first warm-up match was washed-out, this upcoming IND vs NED warm-up match will act as a preview for the main tournament, where India is scheduled to start its campaign against Australia on October 8th.
