Women's World Cup: Rain Washes Out Sri Lanka-Pakistan Clash As Colombo Suffers Fifth Abandonment
ODI World Cup: Unseasonal rain had the final say in a cricket game yet again in Colombo, as the 25th match of the ICC Women’s World Cup clash between Sri Lanka and Pakistan was abandoned after just 4.2 overs of play at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Friday night.
Persistent showers forced the players off the field with Pakistan at 18 without loss, and no further play was possible, resulting in both teams sharing a point each.
The toss had already been delayed by two hours and 45 minutes due to the relentless monsoon rain that had haunted the Colombo leg of the tournament. When the weather briefly cleared, the match was reduced to a 34-over-per-side contest, with a seven-over Power-play. As per the revised bowling restrictions, one bowler could bowl a maximum of seven overs, while four others were limited to six each.
