Dark clouds over Australia’s campaign: What if rain washes out ZIM vs IRE in Pallekele?

 Australia’s World Cup hopes are in peril, needing Ireland to defeat Zimbabwe. A washout in the Ireland-Zimbabwe match would eliminate Australia, as Zimbabwe would advance with a draw. Australia must win their final game and rely on other results, facing an early exit if Zimbabwe secures even a single point. Australia’s World Cup hopes are in peril, needing Ireland to defeat Zimbabwe.
