Former champions Australia were knocked out, as Zimbabwe secured their place in the T20 World Cup 2026 Super Eights after their third group match against Ireland here on Tuesday was abandoned due to rain.

Both teams got a point each, which helped Zimbabwe reach five points, thus eliminating 2021 champions, Australia, reaching the next round, as, even if they win their last match, they can only get to four points, while Sri Lanka already top Group B with six and Zimbabwe have five.
