Over 3.1: Announcement just made that the match has to be abandoned. Far too much rain has fallen. The oval resembles a lake.
Over 3.1: Still raining but slowing a bit. CROWD tonight 10083 - a great crwod for Brisbane`s first KFC 20/20

Over 3.1: The lights have gone out - seems not much hope of a resumption! An eerie sight with torrential rain and swirling wind.

Over 3.1: Hail is now falling with huge claps of thunder and lightening.

Perth attracted nearly 15,500 for their match. Fair effort.

20/20 cricket,laughable methinks. It has been around for years,it was just called indoor cricket,and if 20/20 does take off,look out for an ageing outfit called the Hellions.

Laughable seems to fit aptly in the list of attractions.

On the back of each player's jumper, it had their nick-name, instead of proper name.
