The warm-up match between the United States (USA) and Bangladesh in the T20 World Cup 2024 was cancelled At Grand Prairie Stadium on Tuesday due to a ongoing tornado in Dallas.
The weather condition in the US state Texas wasn’t very good on Tuesday and multiple rain spells and thunderstorms made things worse.
