Rain delays start of India-Afghanistan one-day cricket match

Rain has postponed the toss and the beginning of the first one-day international match between India and Afghanistan, set for Dharamshala on Saturday. This encounter marks the first bilateral ODI series between the two teams, who have met previously only in World Cups and Asia Cups. India comes into the contest with a recent performance of losing three out of their last five ODIs, while Afghanistan has won four consecutive matches. The subsequent ODI in the series is scheduled for Wednesday in Lucknow.
