England vs Pakistan: First T20I Abandoned Due to Rain

Disappointing Start to Series at Headingley

The highly anticipated first T20 International between England and Pakistan at Headingley was abandoned without a ball being bowled due to persistent rain. The match was scheduled to start at 18:00 BST but was eventually called off at 21:00 BST after a lengthy delay.

Frustration for Both Teams

The abandonment is a major disappointment for both teams, who were eager to get their series underway. England are the reigning T20 World Champions, while Pakistan are looking to dethrone them. The match was also a sell-out, with a large crowd of fans eagerly anticipating the action.

England will now face Pakistan in the second T20I at Old Trafford on Thursday, May 25th. The third and final T20I is scheduled to take place at Edgbaston on Sunday, May 28th.
