This means both Pakistan and Ireland will head into the T20 World Cup 2026 without playing any warm-up match. The Men in Green will take on the Netherlands in the first match of the tournament on Saturday, whereas the European side will next face Sri Lanka on Sunday.
But don't be sad! Cricket never ends on CREX, switch tabs to follow action from across the globe. Meanwhile, we have four matches scheduled for tomorrow in the T20 World Cup Warm-Up 2026.
See you then! This is Arjun Bhalla signing off on behalf of Dev Rajawat and Ghanendra Singh Thakur.

5:34 PM IST and Local Time: Bad news, people. Unfortunately, the rain gods have not been kind, as this warm-up match between Pakistan and Ireland has been abandoned.
4:50 PM IST and Local Time: Seems that the toss has been delayed due to rain.
Drama and Pakistan go hand in hand. The Men in Green are already in the middle of drama even without beginning their T20 World Cup 2026 campaign. They have decided to boycott their fixture against India but will play the other teams as scheduled.
Now, before the start of the T20 World Cup, Pakistan will take on Ireland in a warm-up game. In the build-up to the marquee tournament, the Asian side flexed their top muscles, beating Australia in a three-match T20I series back home. Salman Agha led from the front, while players like Babar Azam, Mohammad Nawaz, Shabad Khan, Abrar Ahmed and Saim Ayub showed form. However, they still need to test their core and combination before their first T20 World Cup tie the against the Netherlands.
Meanwhile, Ireland come into this game on the back of a T20I series victory over the UAE, where both their batting and bowling units impressed during the two-match series. That said, if there’s one team with a long-standing reputation for springing surprises at World Cups, it’s Ireland.
Who will surprise whom in this clash of two titans? FYI, toss will play a massive role here in SSC. Stay tuned for toss updates.
