Sri Lanka's second One Day International (ODI) encounter with Pakistan has been rescheduled to September 30, hours after rains washed out the first game in Karachi today (Sept 27).
The heavy downpour resulted in a soggy outfield at the Karachi National Stadium, which the PCB had said would take atleast two days for ground staff to curate it for the next match.
Both teams were expected to play the second game on September 29.
However, Sri Lanka Cricket said the fixture had been revised after being consulted by the Pakistan Cricket Board.
Sri Lanka, sans several senior players who dropped out citing security concerns, are to take on Pakistan in three ODI's and T20 International (T20I)'s each.
The ODI's would be played in Karachi while Lahore will host the T20I games.
