Rain forces Hants game off
Totesport League D1, Rose Bowl: Hampshire v Surrey

Hampshire had their game with Surrey called off without a ball being bowled.

Umpires Vanburn Holder and Mervyn Kitchen had an easy decision to make with pools of water on the outfield and wicket surrounds at the Rose Bowl.

The day-night match had been due to start at 4.10pm and the game was officially scrapped four hours later.

The abandonment will come as a blow to Hampshire who had hired floodlights and had been expecting one of their biggest crowds of the season to date.
