Yorkshire Vikings fixture abandoned at Emirates Old Trafford
Due to the unprecedented amount of rain that has fallen over the last three hours at Emirates Old Trafford, it is not possible for the ground staff to clear the outfield before the official cut off time of 8:59pm, which would allow for a five over fixture. Unfortunately that means that this evening’s Vitality Blast fixture against Yorkshire has been abandoned.
The grounds staff would have required at least two and a half hours to clear the outfield suitably for a fixture to take place and that is on the assumption that there is no further rain.
