Fourth ODI also abandoned

ST. GEORGE'S (GRENADA), APRIL 28. Torrential rains washed out the fourth one-day International between the West Indies and England here on Wednesday.

Match officials Darrell Hair of Australia and Eddie Nicholls of Guyana made the decision early in the morning after pelting rains flooded an already-waterlogged Queen's Park outfield. It was the third match of the seven-match series that has been blighted by rain. In Saturday's double-header in Trinidad, there were only 16 overs of play. Sunday's match was dumped without any action.

Even the opening game of the rubber — 10 days ago in Guyana — was a rain-reduced 30-overs-per-side, which England won by two wickets.

The outlook for the remaining three contests is also bleak. St. Lucia, where the next two matches are scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, is currently being lashed by rain. Barbados, venue for the seventh and final one-dayer, is also experiencing unseasonably wet weather. — AP
