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.

B.C. sees slight job decline in October amid U.S. tariff uncertainty, says minister

British Columbia recorded a small drop in employment last month as global trade tensions and new U.S. tariffs added pressure to key sectors, according to the province’s jobs minister. Minister of Jobs and Economic Growth Ravi Kahlon said Friday that the October Labour Force Survey from Statistics Canada shows a decline of about 2,900 jobs in B.C., largely due to losses in construction and forestry. He linked those decreases to “unjustified” tariffs imposed by the United States, which he said have hurt workers and businesses across the province. Despite the monthly dip, Kahlon noted that
