Rain arrives right after SL stun NZ in Women's T20 WC 2026

Rain played a dramatic role in Sri Lanka's stunning five-wicket win over defending champions New Zealand in the Women's T20 World Cup 2026 at Southampton. Chasing 151, Nilakshika Silva's fifty and a key stand with Kaushani Nuthyangana sealed victory with two balls left. Crucially, rain held off until the final run, arriving only after the historic result.
