Islamabad United vs RawalPindiz Live: Toss Delayed as Rain Lashes Gaddafi Stadium

Islamabad United vs RawalPindiz Live: Toss Delayed as Rain Lashes Gaddafi Stadium

Fans are left waiting as the highly anticipated toss for Match 12 of PSL 11 of Islamabad United vs Rawalpindi Pindiz is officially delayed due to persistent rain in the provincial capital.

While the toss was scheduled for 6:30 PM PST, a sudden heavy downpour shortly before the ceremony forced the ground staff to bring on the full covers. Despite the best efforts of the PCB grounds crew, the intensity of the rain has prevented any immediate on-field activity. 

Under the current tournament regulations, the match officials will wait for a significant window to drain the outfield before a rescheduled toss time can be announced.

The delay is particularly frustrating for fans, as this clash features a high-stakes leadership battle between Shadab Khan and Mohammad Rizwan. Early reports from the venue suggest that while the drainage system at Gaddafi Stadium is world-class, the rain must subside completely before the match referees can conduct an official inspection.

If the rain continues, we may see a reduced-overs contest, similar to yesterday’s Match 11. For now, players remain in the dressing rooms, and the "Wait for Play" signals are active.

Islamabad United Squad : 

Shadab Khan (c), Salman Irshad, Andries Gous, Devon Conway, Faheem Ashraf, Mehran Mumtaz, Mark Chapman, Nisar Ahmed, Mir Hamza Sajjad, Sameen Gul, Sameer Minhas, Imad Wasim, Richard Gleeson, Haider Ali, Mohammad Hasnain, Dipendra Singh Airee, Mohammad Faiq, Mohsin Riaz, Chris Green and Mohammad Salman Mirza.
