T20 World Cup: Toss In India-Canada Match Delayed Due To Wet Outfield; Ground Inspection Set For 8 Pm IST
As of now, the outfield is still wet, with some soggy spots in and around the 30-yard circle, which has resulted in a delay in the start of the first-ever men’s T20I game between India and Canada. Covers are still firmly on the squares under gloomy skies at the venue, which witnessed some early morning rain and has scattered thunderstorms predicted for the entire day. Sri Lanka-Nepal and Ireland-USA clashes of the World Cup have been abandoned previously at the venue due to rain and a wet outfield.
If Saturday’s match is abandoned, then 2007 champions India will finish at the top of the Group ‘A’ points table, with co-hosts USA in the second position. The abandonment will also lead to Canada replacing 2009 champions Pakistan in the third spot. Pakistan, who are already out of the competition, will have to win its last match against Ireland at Lauderhill to finish third in the group.
