India, SA share honours in Emerging Players tournament

August 20, 2010 14:02 IST

India shared honours with South Africa after the final of the 40-overs edition in the Emerging Players Tournament (EPT) was washed out in Brisbane.

The decider between India and South Africa at Brisbane's Allan Border Field was abandoned without a ball being bowled due to persistent rain.

The third-place play-off match between New Zealand and the Australian Institute of Sport at the University ground was also called off due to heavy rain.

India had earlier finished runners-up in the Twenty20 edition of the tournament, losing to the Australian Institute of Sports in the summit clash last week.
