Colombo: The West Indies without winning a single league match of the Twenty20 World Cup 2012 has qualified for the super eight round of the tournament.
The Group B match played at R.Premadasa Stadium, Colombo, Sri Lanka between West Indies and Ireland was spoiled by rain.
Ireland made 129-6 in their 19 overs before heavy rain at the stadium prevented the West Indies from starting their innings.
Both teams received one point each, but the West Indies joined Group B winners Australia in the next round due to a superior net run-rate over the Irish.
Australia have already qualified for the next round from the group, having defeated both Ireland and the West Indies.
