It is the primary fit on the World Cup in England and Wales to be abandoned with no end result.

Both groups now have 3 points, with one win and one loss apiece.



It was once a blow to Pakistan's bid to succeed in the semi-finals and Sarfaraz mentioned: "As a workforce we really sought after to play this fit, especially after gaining momentum with the win in opposition to England. It is unlucky that we were not able to play.

"Our subsequent fit is in opposition to Australia. Like different groups in the match they are also a difficult opponent they usually even have momentum as they have got received their first two suits."

Pakistan lost to the West Indies via seven wickets at Trent Bridge ahead of beating England via 14 runs on the same venue on Monday.

Sarfaraz remains assured Pakistan can still push for a last-four place in the 10-team match regardless of the Sri Lanka washout.

"We have a perfect workforce spirit and our self belief is on a high after the win in opposition to England," he mentioned.


Sri Lanka crashed to a 10-wicket defeat in opposition to New Zealand ahead of pulling off a 34-run win in opposition to Afghanistan in a rain-affected game.


The call-off in Bristol dissatisfied enthusiasts who had travelled to look at the sport.


"We came from Lahore to look at this fit and it proved a moist squib," said Farhan Malik. "We lost a the most important point because we have been positive of thrashing Sri Lanka."
