Third one-dayer abandoned too


Rain and unplayable conditions forced the abandonment of the third one-day international between West Indies and England without a ball being bowled on Sunday.

Umpires Aleem Dar of Pakistan and Billy Doctrove of Dominica were to inspect the Queen's Park Oval outfield for a second time at 1630 GMT, but the rain started again just prior to their inspection.

Although the day started in bright sunshine, a wet outfield prevailed at Queen's Park Oval, after heavy rains on Saturday drenched the ground.

Only 16 overs of cricket were possible on Saturday and forced a no-result in the second ODI that started an hour late.
