Australia's second Women's Cricket World Cup match, against co-hosts Sri Lanka in Colombo, has been abandoned without a ball being bowled because of heavy rain.
The entire playing field at the R Premadasa Stadium remained under dark blue covers before umpires called off the game at 5:35 pm local time on Saturday.
It was a blow for the defending champions Australia, who had won their first match against New Zealand in fine style on Wednesday with an 89-run victory but now only pick up one point for an abandoned match.
