As the Cricket World Cup continues, wet weather may play a role in Monday's fixture.
Bangladesh will face Afghanistan on Monday at 10:30 a.m. BST at Rose Bowl in Southampton, United Kingdom.
Unlike fixtures over the weekend that had dry weather, isolated showers will cross the region on Monday which could briefly impact play.

The temperature at the start of the match will be around 19 C (66 F). Winds should generally be light and not impact play.
Temperatures will be climbing to a high of just 20 C (68 F). The surge of very warm air headed to the U.K. will hold off until the second half of the week.

Despite cooler air and cloudy periods, fans and players will need to apply sunscreen before the fixture to protect themselves from the strong June sun.
Cricket action continues on Tuesday morning, BST, between England and Australia at Lord's in London.
Where there may be a brief shower or thunderstorm, the weather on Tuesday is not expected to play a significant role. The highest chance for rain is expected to be during the morning.
