Tuskers, Rhinos match ends in a draw

A second match involving Tuskers has been rained off in as many weeks.

Tuskers were up against Rhinos at Bulawayo Athletic Club (BAC) and on the final day of the Logan Cup contest, a draw was ordered.

Only 9.3 overs of cricket were played over four days due to persistent rain and a wet outfield.

There was no play on the first two days, and action was only possible on day three, but for a very brief period. Play was suspended due to wet patches on the field, and overnight rain made it impossible to continue despite hopes of some action this morning.

The match officials decided to call for a draw after the ground staff reported that the outfield would only be fit for play after 3pm, by which time, no result would have been possible.

This is the second consecutive Tuskers Logan Cup match to be affected by rain, after their game against Southern Rocks in Harare last week also ended in a draw due to rain.
