BCCI calls off first two matches of Quadrangular Series due to bad weather

The first two matches of the Quadrangular Series between the teams of India A, South Africa A, Australia A and India B which were scheduled to be played on August 17 at Krishna and Vijayawada have been called off due to an extremely bad climate prevailing in these areas.

The match officials decided to do so after consulting the curator S Sriram. They found the conditions to be unfit to conduct play on the scheduled dates, i.e., 17th August and 18th August (reserve day). So, the initial two matches between India A and Australia A; India B and South Africa A are cancelled.

The weather forecast of the upcoming matches after this is fine and are expected to be played as scheduled.
