India vs Canada T20 Match Cancelled Due to Wet Field, Umpires Call Off the Game
INDIA vs Canada T20 match in the T20 World Cup was called off due to a wet field in Lauderhill Stadium, Florida. The toss did not happen, and the umpires declared the match cancelled after inspecting the conditions of the ground. India had already qualified for the Super Eight stage, so the cancellation of this match did not impact their standing.
The Indian team’s final match against Canada was supposed to be a crucial one before the Super Eight phase. The Indian team faced issues in batting such as low scores and spinners struggling in the New York matches, and the Florida pitch was expected to offer better batting conditions.
India had won three matches in a row but faced challenges on the dangerous New York pitch. However, in Florida, the batsmen would have had a chance to play more freely. The bowlers, on the other hand, might have to work a bit harder.
India and Canada players took the opportunity to engage in activities like playing football on the field while the match was delayed due to rain. The field inspection revealed the ground was not suitable for play, leading the umpires to plan another inspection at nine in the night.
