India-SA 3rd T20 called off because of wet outfield

October 08, 2015 21:35

With the conditions at the Eden Gardens showing no signs of improvement, the umpires have decided to call off the match because of a wet outfield.

South Africa emerge the 2-0 winners in the three-match series following victories in the first two games, in Dharamsala and Cuttack.

Despite the supersoppers being used for the last few hours, the condition of the outfield did not improve enough for the match to begin.

The two teams will clash in the five-match ODI series, starting in Kanpur on Sunday, October 11.
