A highly anticipated T20 World Cup 2024 Group A match between Ireland and the United States is set to unfold at Central Broward Park in Lauderhill, Florida today. However, the threat of rain looms large over the match, with severe flood warnings in effect for the region. This inclement weather could disrupt the match, and end Pakistan’s chances for Super-8.
If rain intervenes and the match is unable to proceed, the United States will gain a crucial point, propelling them into the Super-8 round while dashing Pakistan’s hopes for advancement. On the other hand, if Ireland manages to defeat the US, Pakistan will still have a chance to secure a spot in the tournament’s next stage.
If rain stop the match, Ireland, Canada, and Pakistan would face elimination from the T20 World Cup 2024 before reaching the Super-8 stage. Meanwhile, the USA would secure qualification for the next round alongside India, who have already secured their berth in the Super-8.
According to The Weather Channel, there is a high probability of thunderstorms during today’s match between Ireland and the USA, scheduled to commence at 10:30 AM local time.
Recent updates indicate heavy rainfall over the past two days, prompting Florida Governor Ron DeSantis to declare a state of emergency for several counties, including Broward, Collier, Lee, Miami-Dade, and Sarasota. Additionally, mayors in Miami-Dade, Miami, and Fort Lauderdale have also declared states of emergency in response to the adverse weather conditions.
