PAK vs NAM, T20 World Cup 2026: The Men in Green find themselves in a precarious situation following their humiliating 61-run loss against arch-rivals India in Colombo. Now, Pakistan take on Namibia in the final group-stage match of the marquee event and it is all to play for. Nothing short of a win will see them through to the Super 8 stage. While they will be hot favourites to beat Namibia, the question is - will rain intervene and play spoilsport?
PAK vs NAM: Colombo Weather Report
From a Pakistan point of view there is good news. There is a possibility of rain, but that should not wash away the entire game. In fact, as per Accuweather, even thunderstorms are expected. While rain is expected to stay away during the duration of the game, cloud cover is expected to be 100 per cent.
But again, that should not be a concern. Mind you, the thunderstorms are expected to happen between 1 and 3 PM and the match starts at 3 PM IST.

Will PAK Get Knocked Out if Rain Washes Out Game?
Yes, in case the game is washed out, Pakistan would not be out. In fact, a wash out would actually be a good result for Pakistan as they would get a point and that should be good enough for them to go through to the Super 8. For the unversed, India have already made it through with three out of three.
PAK vs NAM: Preview: There are whispers that Pakistan is likely to make multiple changes to their XI. Reports claim Babar Azam and Shaheen Afridi may be benched for the game. Salman Mirza and Fakhar Zaman are reportedly set to replace Shaheen and Babar respectively.
