Rain curtails Afghan’s first training session


Bengaluru : Rain played spoilsport on Afghanistan’s first practice session ahead of its historic Test debut against India as the minnows were forced to wind up its nets 45 minutes ahead of the scheduled time, here on Sunday.

Afghanistan team arrived at NCA on time and started practising from 2 PM but had to wind up its session at 4.15 PM following a heavy downpour. Rain threat also looms large over the match starting on June 14 as weathermen had forecast wet conditions during one or two days.
