The Group B game of the World Twenty20 Championship between Ireland and West Indies finished in a no-result on Monday, after heavy rain forced an abandonment at the R Premadasa Stadium.

The game was reduced to 19 overs per side because of a rain interruption during Ireland’s innings.

West Indies qualify for the Super Eight, second round on a superior net run rate.

Ireland posted a sub-par total of 129 for six from 19 overs.

West Indies will face England in the Super Eights stage on Thursday, September 27.
