GROS ISLET, St Lucia, CMC – Rain has forced the abandonment of the nightcap game in the Caribbean Premier League between St Lucia Kings and St Kitts and Nevis Patriots without a ball bowled here Sunday.
Persistent rain, caused by a strong tropical wave sweeping through the Lesser Antilles, delayed the start of the contest at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground and even after the adverse weather abated, soggy conditions forced officials to scrap the game.
The morning fixture at the venue between Barbados Royals and Jamaica Tallawahs was also washed out.
It marks the second straight day of abandonments after the two games on Saturday ended in no results, with only a combined eight overs possible.
The tournament will now shift to Warner Park in Basseterre where Patriots host reigning champions Jamaica Tallawahs tomorrow.
