Kochi (Kerala)[India], December 12 : Rain played spoilsport in the match between India and South Africa as the game was called off without a ball being bowled here at the St. Paul's College Ground, Kochi.
The teams will share points. There were persistent showers from the morning making it not possible for the match to start forcing the umpires to call off the game. India will now play Bangladesh at the Barabati Stadium, Cuttack on Tuesday.
In the other round-robin match played at the Sachin Tendulkar Gymkhana, Mumbai Bangladesh crushed Australia by 102 runs to secure their third tournament win and move to the top of the table.
