Hindustan Times  

By Aparajita Upadhyay Afghanistan-New Zealand Test abandoned without a ball being bowled Greater Noida, The one-off Test between Afghanistan and New Zealand was called off on Friday without a ball being bowled, marking only the eighth time in Test cricket history that such a situation has occurred. "It is still raining in Greater Noida and due to frequent rains, the 5th and final day of the Afghanistan vs New Zealand Test has been called off by the match officials," the Afghanistan Cricket Board said in a statement. Only seven matches in the history of Test cricket have been abandoned without a ball being bowled dating back to 1890. It was the first time Afghanistan, who don't get to play too many Tests with big nations, was scheduled to take on New Zealand.
