Pakistan Register Most Abandoned T20Is After Rain Washes Out Super Eight Clash
After the opening fixture of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 Super Eight, between Pakistan and New Zealand, was called off due to incessant rain in Colombo, Pakistan became the team with the most number of abandoned games in the shortest format of the game.
Pakistan captain Salman Ali Agha had won the toss and elected to bat first, but no sooner had the decision been made than drizzle swept across the ground. Covers were quickly brought on, and puddles formed on the square, making conditions unplayable. Match officials waited through the evening, but with rain showing no signs of relenting, the inevitable call of abandoning the game was made.
