NOTTINGHAM, England (AP) — England’s Twenty20 decider against South Africa was a washout on Sunday at Trent Bridge and the three-match series ended 1-1.
Phil Salt’s unbeaten 141 — the fastest and highest T20 century by an Englishman — helped the hosts to a record-breaking 146-run win at Old Trafford on Friday after South Africa won a rain-affected series opener at Cardiff on Wednesday.
Light rain on Sunday began shortly before the 2 p.m. (1300 GMT) local time toss at Nottingham.
While captains Harry Brook and Aiden Markram emerged in their kits at 2:10 p.m., a toss was aborted as the shower grew heavier. With no let-up, the umpires officially abandoned the match at 4:20 p.m.
