Match Centre

17:50: The match has been abandoned due to rain and both teams share a point each.

16:30: As they start to remove the covers, the rain starts again. Covers coming back on the square.

16:20: If we have 20 over game, the D/L target would be 124. That is a long way off, first the rain has to stop.

15:40:It is still drizzling and it does not look good, but we have our fingers crossed. The umpires have been going back and forth to look at the conditions.
