That will be it then. Ireland and Pakistan join Canada in the list of teams who have been eliminated from Group A. The USA have scripted history and will now join India in the Super Eight stage of this tournament from this group. This also means that USA qualify for the 2026 T20 World Cup. This is the duo of Pragadeesh and Mohul signing off. Thanks a lot for staying tuned to Sportskeeda till the end. We regret the fact that no play was possible, and hope to make up for it by the coverage of the two early-morning games tomorrow. Until next time, goodbye and happy weekend!
Update 11:02 PM IST - That is it, this game has been called off! We waited for three hours in anticipation of getting some action underway, but unfortunately, it was not to be. Rain is back at the ground, and no play will be possible.
Update 10:56 PM IST - Thunder has struck the area and a lightning warning has been received! The umpires have hurriedly walked back to the dressing room, as have the Irish players. It looks extremely unlikely for the game to go on now.
Update 10:55 PM IST - Oh no, the pitch is being covered because of the drizzle. This could be the end. Get ready for the inevitable if you are a Pakistan fan
Update 10:45 PM IST - It's been a long wait and the umpires are in the middle again. This could be a final inspection, and as I type this, it looks very dark in the middle. A few members of the ground staff are using the dryer in the specific area of the outfield. The match referee Javagal Srinath is in the middle as well and his decision could be the final one
Ravichandran Ashwin is not a big fan of shifting the venues in the middle of the tournament. Surely, his comments won't please the Pakistan fans.👇
Anupam: "USA beating Pakistan in the Super over has to be one of the greatest upsets of T20 WC history. Something which USA cricket will remember for a long time."
Mahesh: "The moment of the World Cup has to be USA beating Pakistan in the Super Over. And Afghanistan beating NZ. Two games that lit up this tournament."
Update 10:00 PM IST - The inspection is underway. The umpires head directly towards the wet area on the outfield and there is some water oozing out of the turf as they walk. The dryer is being used by the ground staff to dry the outfield. Oh wait, there will be another inspection at 10:45 PM IST
Sarthak Srivastav: "India winning against Pak has to be my favorite. Nothing beats that."
Ahmad Faraz: "This will be very disappointing for not only Pakistan but also for Ireland if today's match is abandoned."
Indeed, Faraz. Are you, by any chance, a namesake of the famous poet?
As we keep waiting for some news, here is a good question: let us know your favourite moment from the ongoing T20 World Cup in the comments!
Update 9:25 PM IST: The ICC have confirmed that the latest a five-over game can begin today is at 2:16 PM local time, which will be 11:46 PM IST.
Update 9:15 PM IST: The umpires aren't convinced, looking at the conditions but they don't want to take a decision now, so there will be another inspection at 10 PM IST (12:30 PM Local).
Update 9:11 PM IST: The wait continues and things doesn't look promising after the inspection. The umpires feel the players would get injured playing on a damp surface. We are getting some news that the game might get called off. Nothing confirmed yet.
