In the 11th match of T20 World Cup 2012, it was rain who played spoilsport and helped West Indies move into super eight stage due to better net run rate than Ireland. West Indies won the toss and invited Ireland to bat first. Ireland got off to a poor start but somehow managed to score 129/6 in 19 overs. Though the target for West Indies was low but Ireland still had chance as the team which would have won the match would have qualified for the super eight stage.
