Aus-WI T20 World Cup warm-up game cancelled due to waterlogged outfield
Brisbane: The opening warm-up game between Australia and West Indies ahead of the Women’s T20 World Cup was cancelled after heavy showers at the Allan Border Field left the conditions unfit for play. Exceptionally heavy rain left the outfield at the ground even as the pitch was covered. Chris Tetley, ICC Head of Events, said, “Whilst the curators have worked tirelessly, the volume of rain has left us with no option but to cancel tomorrow’s match. We are hopeful that conditions will permit the matches between Bangladesh and Thailand, and India and Pakistan to take place on Sunday.” PTI
