England captain Jos Buttler was disappointed that the crucial T20 World Cup match against Australia was canceled due to rain but said the right decision was taken as the conditions were not good to take the field. England had to face rain for the second time in a row. However, not a single ball could be bowled on Friday. But England lost to Ireland due to the Duckworth-Lewis method as rain came at the end of the match.
Butler said, “They (umpires) had some big concerns and I think they were right. The outfield was very wet, even within the 30-yard circle there were some places that were not good for playing. We want to play as much cricket as we can, but it has to be safe and that was definitely not the case. He said, “I think every bowler would also have concerns. The safety of the players is really important and the ground was not fit to play for the bowlers of both the teams. I think the right decision was made. ,
Even the afternoon match between Afghanistan and Ireland at the MCG was washed out due to rain. Asked if rain is affecting his hopes of reaching the semi-finals, Buttler said, “I am not discouraged. I am not even a meteorologist but we all want to play a full match of cricket. He said, “But now unfortunately our two matches were affected by the weather. You don’t want this to happen in your matches, but wherever you play in the world, it will happen if it rains.
