MATCH 1 | Takashinga Sports Club
ZIM
Scotland's ICC U19 Men's Cricket World Cup campaign suffered a false start in Harare, as wet ground conditions saw their opening fixture against Zimbabwe abandoned without a ball being bowled.
The weather was bright and dry at Takashinga Sports Club today, but recent heavy rainfall meant that there were a number of areas of concern with the playing surface, which ultimately caused the umpires to call off the game following a number of inspections.
Both sides will take one point each from this game, with Scotland next in action on Monday 19 January against Pakistan (0730 GMT) at the same venue.
