Sri Lanka’s Super 8 chances are just hanging by a thread as they need to win this match anyhow, but due to consistent rain the match has been called off without a toss.
As Lankans lost their previous 2 matches back to back and are yet to open their victory account. Their last defeat came against Bangladesh where they lost the match in the last moments. On the other hand, Nepal lost their last encounter against Netherlands.
The 2014 champion lost both their matches in a close one. First against South Africa and then against Sri Lanka. Now their Super 8 qualification is very hard to get. The only way for their chance to make it to the next round is that they need to defeat Netherlands in their last match. Whereas Bangladesh had to get defeat against Nepal and Netherlands.
While Nepal qualification scenario is that they need to win their matches against Bangladesh and South Africa and had to hope that Netherlands lose their both remaining matches.
For both the teams, the qualification scenario is quite difficult.
Both teams got 1 point each due to the match being abandoned.
