Sussex Sharks v Kent Spitfires CB40 match at Arundel abandoned

Kent Spitfires' Clydesdale Bank 40 match against Sussex Sharks at Arundel was abandoned this afternoon.

Umpires called the game off at 1.30pm after persistent rain during the morning had left the run-ups in an unplayable condition.

Sussex have gone top of group C in the Clydesdale Bank 40 despite suffering the washout, their fourthin a row.

The point means Sussex go ahead of Warwickshire on 10 points but have played a game more, while Kent are third on seven points.

It continues a frustrating run for Sussex, who won their opening three games in the competition but have seen their matches against Unicorns, Derbyshire, Warwickshire and now Kent all abandoned.
