Team India's practice session in America has had to be cancelled. Not only this, if the situation does not improve, then the Indian team's last group match with Canada may also have to be cancelled in the same way. This is because the weather in Florida has become unfaithful. Life there is in disarray due to the continuous rain. The roads are submerged in water. Now tell me how can practice be done in such weather. And, in the weather in which even practice cannot be done, the chances of a match being held are almost nil.
It is clear that not only Team India's practice session has been affected by the bad weather in Florida. But its match with Canada on June 15 can also be affected by this. The match between India and Canada will be played in Lauderhill, Florida. However, the good thing from Team India's point of view is that even after the cancellation of this match, its health will not be affected. It has already reached the Super 8 by winning 3 matches.
Team India left for Florida immediately after winning against USA in New York. BCCI has also posted a video of Team India reaching Florida on social media.
Florida's bad weather will not only affect India-Canada but also USA vs Ireland and Pakistan-Ireland matches. There is no need to worry for India and USA if the game gets spoilt due to rain. But, for Pakistan, the tournament may end. Actually, for Pakistan's hopes in the tournament, it is important that Ireland's team defeats USA. But, this will be possible only when the rain stops. If the rain does not stop and the USA-Ireland match is cancelled, then Pakistan will be out of the T20 World Cup.
There are also reports that due to bad weather, there is talk of shifting the Florida matches somewhere else. But, according to the information received, ICC has now clarified that it is not possible to do so suddenly. Meaning, the Florida matches will be played there only.
