Today's T20 World Cup match between America and Ireland was canceled due to rain. Both teams got one point each, with the USA team qualifying for the Super-8, while the Pakistan team was eliminated from the tournament.

The Meteorological Department had already predicted rain in Florida. There is an alert of heavy rain for three more days.

For Friday's match, the pitch was completely covered to protect it from rain, but the outfield remained waterlogged. The umpire inspected the pitch three times but it was decided to abandon the match as it was wet.

Due to this, along with Pakistan, the teams of Canada and Ireland have also been out of the Super 8 race.

Today's match between USA and Ireland was scheduled to be played at the Central Broward Regional Park Stadium in Florida, but due to rain, even the toss was not possible.
