COLOMBO – Rain delayed the toss ahead of the 25th match of the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 between Pakistan and Sri Lanka at the R. Premadasa Stadium, marking yet another weather interruption in a tournament largely defined by heavy showers.
Both teams, already eliminated from semi-final contention, were aiming to end their campaigns on a positive note but were forced to wait as covers remained on the outfield and ground staff treated damp patches near the boundary. Persistent rainfall has affected numerous matches at the venue, limiting playing time and overshadowing the competition.
For Pakistan, the delay adds to a frustrating campaign in which victory has remained elusive. Sri Lanka, meanwhile, are looking to gather momentum for future events despite the rain-marred tournament ending.
