Canada hopes Mother Nature doesn't interfere with a high-profile matchup with top-ranked India at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup on Saturday.Tuesday's match between Sri Lanka and Nepal, the tournament's first at Central Broward Park & Broward County Stadium, was abandoned without a ball played. And Lauderhill was under a flood watch through Friday evening.
The 18th-ranked U.S. is in the driver's seat to join India, with No. 6 Pakistan needing a win over No. 11 Ireland on Sunday and a U.S. loss to Ireland on Friday. A more likely scenario, if the game goes ahead, is that the Canadians end their first-ever trip to the T20 tournament against India. The U.S. can officially end Canada — and Pakistan — hopes with a victory over Ireland on Friday if the weather co-operates.
"We were sad that we couldn't beat the U.S.," said Dassanayake."The U.S. lately has put up a good team. Right now they're playing good cricket. We almost won that game. If we had won that game, we would have been in a very good position. But overall every game that we've played, all three, I think we earned respect from the cricketing world.
