England women's T20 abandoned

The heavy rain sweeping across the United Kingdom has claimed the NatWest Women's International Twenty20 between England and India at Taunton.

The NatWest Women's Twenty20 was abandoned more than two hours before the scheduled start

Play was due to start at 2.35pm, but due to overnight rain the umpires called the match off at 12.30pm.

The next match in the series is the fourth one-day international on Sunday at Arundel Castle, starting at 10.45am.

England, who have already won the five-match series having beaten India in the first three ODIs, will be aiming to go unbeaten in 14 consecutive matches.
