Australia has been going through an unusually cold and wet beginning to their summer as La Niña, a tropical current, has played truant with the weather pattern in Southern Hemisphere.
The weather could potentially tamper with the England vs Pakistan final at the MCG, as the teams are vying to create history. If Pakistan win, they will become the second team after the West Indies to win the T20 World Cup twice.
England are also looking to bag their second T20 World Cup after the one they had won in 2010, and also to become first team to hold the T20 and 50-over World titles at the same time.
