Rain delays post-tea session in Pakistan-South Africa Test
Heavy rain delayed the resumption of play in the post-tea session on the opening day of the second Test between Pakistan and South Africa on Thursday.
As players walked off the field at the tea break, it began to pour, with rain lashing the Rawalpindi stadium as groundsmen placed the covers on the pitch and adjoining area.
Play was due to resume at 3:00 PM local time (1000 GMT) but persistent rain kept players in the dressing rooms.
Pakistan, who won the toss and batted, were 145-3 at the tea break with skipper Babar Azam on 77 not out and Fawad Alam unbeaten on 42.
Pakistan leads the two-match series 1-0 after winning the first Test in Karachi by seven wickets.
