Rain Plays Spoilsport in ICC Women's World Cup Clash

Rain forced yet another no result in the ICC Women's World Cup as the match between Sri Lanka and Pakistan was called off. This marks the fifth time a match at the R. Premadasa Stadium has ended without a result due to inclement weather.

Political tensions with host nation India mean all of Pakistan's matches are being played at this venue. The persistent rain also led to the delay of the toss, ultimately reducing the game to a 34 overs per side contest before it was eventually abandoned.

The match commenced with Pakistan at 18 for no loss in 4.2 overs before heavy rain halted play, leaving fans disappointed and players frustrated as they hoped for a chance to compete.
