Rain prevents play in the 3rd cricket ODI between New Zealand and India
HAMILTON, New Zealand (AP) --- The third one-day cricket international between
New Zealand and India was abandoned Tuesday because of rain.
India won a toss delayed by more than two hours by a wet outfield and passing
showers, but no play was possible.
The decision to abandon the match was made shortly before 7 p.m. local time,
when steadier and more heavy rain meant there was no chance of preparing Seddon
Park for play before the cut off time of 8 p.m.
Rain also affected the first match of the series in Auckland, which India won
by five wickets, and the second in Wellington, which India won by four runs to
take a 2-0 series lead. Both were decided under the Duckworth-Lewis system
The teams now move to Mount Maunganui on New Zealand's North Island for the
fourth and fifth matches on Friday and Sunday. India can no longer lose the
series but New Zealand still has a chance to draw level.
