Pakistan end winless World Cup campaign on sodden note

Pakistan have exited the women's one-day World Cup without a single win after their final game, a clash with Sri Lanka in Colombo, was washed out.

Persistent rain in Sri Lanka helped ruin Pakistan's hopes of progressing to the semi-finals, with three of their fixtures abandoned because of the weather.

Pakistan captain Fatima Sana urged the International Cricket Council to arrange "good venues" for future women's showpiece tournaments.

Pakistan reached 0-18 after 4.2 overs before rain ruined the match, which ended up a dead rubber.

The winners of the pool match between Australia and South Africa will head to Mumbai and "host'' fourth-placed India in one semi-final, while the other will feature the losers and England.
