ODI World Cup: Is Even Nature Against Pakistan?

Rain delays Women’s ODI World Cup match

The ongoing Women’s ODI World Cup has been heavily affected by rain, especially in Colombo, where 4 out of 9 matches have already been washed out. Although the tournament is being hosted in India, Pakistan’s matches are being held in Sri Lanka due to political tensions.

Everyone knows that Colombo experiences heavy rain this time of year. Many fans are puzzled about the decision to schedule games there, especially when the risk of rain cancellations was obvious from the start. It has left both players and spectators disappointed.

Divided Reactions Among Fans

While some feel that it’s unfair to hold matches in such conditions, others are finding humour in Pakistan’s misfortune. The debate continues, but the scheduling choice has clearly impacted the spirit of competition and disrupted Pakistan’s already struggling campaign.

Pakistan’s Struggles Continue

Pakistan’s performance has been poor throughout the tournament. The team has failed to win a single game, losing 3 out of the 5 matches played so far. The continuous washouts have only added to their woes, keeping them at the bottom of the points table.

Top Teams in Command

Australia, South Africa, and England are dominating the tournament with 9, 8, and 7 points respectively. India’s performance hasn’t been consistent either. With only 4 points from 4 games, the Women in Blue must win their next matches to stay alive in the competition.

India Faces a Must-Win Clash

As India prepares to face England today, the match carries huge importance. A win will keep India’s semi-final hopes alive, while another loss could end their campaign early. Fans are hoping the team delivers a strong comeback and avoids the same fate as Pakistan.
