The Group D encounter between Sri Lanka and Nepal in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 was abandoned due to inclement weather in Lauderhill, Florida. The match, which was set to be held on June 11 as Match 23, was delayed initially due to rain and eventually washed out, resulting in both teams earning their first points of the tournament. The toss was delayed, and despite the rain, Nepal fans remained enthusiastic. Nepal's captain, Rohit Paudel, had expressed confidence in an upset against Sri Lanka, but the weather conditions prevented any play. The washout leaves Sri Lanka in a precarious position, barely alive in the tournament, while Nepal looks forward to their next match against South Africa in three days.
