The opening-day washout has reportedly forced the match status.</p><p dir="ltr">The <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/team-india-s-canberra-schedule-revealed/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canberra </a>weather forecast doubted the opening day of the two-day practice match. Although it was a practice match, it was important for India to manage crucial practice before the upcoming day-night pink ball Test match against Australia at Adelaide Oval.&nbsp;</p><p dir="ltr">Just like every year, Manuka Oval (Canberra) hosts the two-day day-night pink ball match between Prime Minister&rsquo;s XI and Indians. However, the match couldn&rsquo;t start on Saturday due to continuous rain between 10 AM and 5:30 PM. Although the Indian team was present at the match venue, persistent rain denied any activities.</p><p dir="ltr">Two umpires later confirmed no play for the opening day of the invitational game. The rain returned havier at 7 PM, while both teams left the venue at 6:30 PM.</p><p dir="ltr"><strong>See Also:</strong> <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/huge-blow-for-australia-as-star-pacer-ruled-out-ahead-of-adelaide-test/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Huge blow for Australia as star pacer ruled out ahead of Adelaide Test</a></p><h3 dir="ltr"><strong>Two-day match likely to be one-day affair&nbsp;</strong></h3><p dir="ltr">According to the latest ESPNcricinfo report, the invitational game can now be played in the one-day format. It can be a 50-over format for Sunday&rsquo;s encounter as the match can begin at 2:40 PM. The Saturday ticket holders will be refunded.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><h3 dir="ltr"><strong>India missed crucial practice match</strong></h3><p dir="ltr">It was the only opportunity for team India to prepare for the day-night pink ball Test match, which isn't common outside Australia. While Australia hosts one day-night pink ball Test match in the home season, India last played it during their previous Australia tour. Adelaide Oval hosted that four-match Test series opener, where India lost that match after they were bundled out for 36 runs in their second innings. It was their second and last day-night Test after a dominating win against Bangladesh at Kolkata.</p><p dir="ltr">Adelaide Oval is once again set to host another day-night pink ball Test match. It will be the second Test of the ongoing five-match Test series, starting on December 6. It will be Australia's 13th day-night pink ball Test match, where they won their first 11 matches before losing their last one against West Indies at the Gabba last January.&nbsp;</p><p dir="ltr">In the ongoing <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_cricket_team_in_Australia_in_2024%E2%80%9325" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25</a>, the five-match Test series, visitors India are leading by 1-0 after the first Test. India started the away Test series by winning the Perth Test by 295 runs.&nbsp;</p>]]></content:encoded>
