Fri Feb 28 08:34:41 UTC 2025: ## Rain Threatens Afghanistan-Australia Champions Trophy Clash
**Lahore, Pakistan** – A crucial Group B match between Afghanistan and Australia in the Champions Trophy 2025 is under threat from rain. Over 70% chance of precipitation is forecast for the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, casting doubt on the completion of the game. Despite the gloomy prediction, conditions are currently dry.
Afghanistan enters the match riding high after a stunning eight-run victory over England, while Australia needs a win after their previous match against South Africa was washed out. While a loss wouldn’t mathematically eliminate Australia from contention (a highly improbable net run rate scenario remains), Afghanistan must win to keep their tournament hopes alive. The match is being closely followed by fans worldwide.
