RAWALPINDI: The second match of the day in the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL) season nine, scheduled between Islamabad United and Quetta Gladiators in Rawalpindi, has been cancelled due to persistent heavy rain.

Originally set to begin at 7:00pm with the toss scheduled half an hour prior, the match had to be called off as the covers remained on the field at Pindi Cricket Stadium, with significant puddles covering the outfield.

Earlier today, the PSL season nine match between Lahore Qalandars and Peshawar Zalmi was also cancelled due to continuous rain and a wet outfield in Rawalpindi.

After heavy downpours in the twin cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad, covers were placed at the stadium. Initially, the covers were removed when the rain briefly ceased, allowing the ground staff to work on drying the field.
