India and Japan scheduled for T20I amid Typhoon Dujuan threat

India is set to face Japan in a historic T20 International on September 22 at the Sano International Cricket Ground. As the reigning T20 World Cup champions, India holds a significant advantage over Japan, who are currently ranked 41st in the format. However, severe weather from Typhoon Dujuan may affect the match, with Japan's recent game against Hong Kong being abandoned due to rain. India's Monday training session was also canceled because of inclement weather, prompting concerns about the fixture's viability. The Japan Cricket Association hopes for improvement in conditions before the match, which celebrates 75 years of diplomatic relations between the nations.
