India vs. Canada: Will the Florida weather be the ‘unannounced guest’ at the match?

With precarious weather updates and torrential rains lashing onto the state of Florida, can Team India take the field against Canada in their final game of Group Stages?

New Delhi: India has displayed an on-field exuberance to entertain the large crowds that have turned up in large numbers. So far India has managed to win all the 3 games that the men in blue have played. Naturally, Team India will look to keep its perfect record in check.

However, with precarious weather updates and torrential rains lashing onto the state of Florida, can Team India take the field against Canada in their final game of Group Stages? Florida has already experienced a washout between the USA and Pakistan, which led to the Pakistan team crashing out of the World Cup.

From India’s point of view, a win will bolster their Super 8 preparations where they will be taking on tournament favourites Australia on the 24th of June. On the other hand, after getting battered by the USA, and thrashed by Pakistan, Canada picked up a timely win against Ireland. Naturally, the Canadians will be looking to end their campaign with a win.

According to the popular weather app, Accuweather forecast, rain chances range between 35%-45%. Moreover, there is a 50% chance of thunderstorms during the match with temperatures close to 28 ℃ and humidity hovering around 80%.

Seeing the weather in Florida, there is a high chance that there will be a delay in the toss. But the main question is will the match get a green signal, even with reduced overs? So far, the National Meteorological Office has declared a Red Alert due to the incessant rainfall and flooding in Miami. In such a precarious state, the turnout is also expected to be not much.
