A matchstick can ignite petrol, but it's not as straightforward as simply lighting a match next to it. Petrol needs to be in a vapor form for ignition, and if the conditions are right—such as the petrol being in an open container or properly vaporized—then a matchstick can certainly cause it to catch fire. However, doing so is extremely dangerous and poses a significant risk of explosion or fire. Always exercise caution when handling flammable substances.
