Rain showers delay the start of the first India-Afghanistan one-day cricket match

DHARAMSHALA, India (AP) — Rain has delayed the toss and the start of the first match of a three-match one-day international series between India and Afghanistan on Saturday.

It is the first bilateral ODI series between the countries. The teams have only met at World Cups and Asia Cups in the one-day format, with India winning three of the four matches and the other ending in a tie.

India comes into the match having lost while Afghanistan has won four in a row. Last week, India completed an over Afghanistan in a one-off test inside three days.

The second ODI is scheduled for Wednesday at Lucknow and the third on June 20 in Chennai.
