The T20 match between Canada and Namibia was abandoned due to rain. It was scheduled to be the first of five matches. Namibia ranks 15th and Canada 21st in T20 cricket, and weather disruptions have affected previous games as well.
On Tuesday, Canada’s T20 cricket match against Namibia was canceled before any play due to persistent rain. This contest was intended to be the inaugural match in a series of five 20-over games between the two teams. They are scheduled to resume the series on Wednesday, continuing through to Sunday, all held in Namibia’s capital, Windhoek.
Currently, Namibia holds the 15th position in the T20 rankings as per the International Cricket Council (ICC), while Canada is placed at 21st. Weather has significantly influenced recent cricket events in Namibia, as observed during the ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 tri-series, which affected Canada’s matches against the 14th-ranked Netherlands on March 5 and 11, both of which were also canceled due to harsh weather conditions.
In summary, the first T20 match between Canada and Namibia was abandoned without any play due to rain. The series will continue as scheduled with four more matches this week. Both teams face challenges, not only in competition but also from unpredictable weather, as seen in their recent matches.
