Washout at Hove

Heavy rain during the day and late afternoon forced the abandonment of the Spitfires Vitality Blast south group game against Sussex Sharks’ at Hove on Friday, with both sides taking one No Result point.

With the outfield saturated, there was no option but to announce that the ground was unfit for play and that there was no chance of conditions improving, after the scheduled 7pm start, even for a five-over match to be contested later in the evening.
