GREATER NOIDA: It was swift and early on Wednesday - the abandonment of the third day of the Afghanistan-New Zealand Test at the Shaheed Vijay Singh Pathik Sports Complex here.
There was a downpour for an hour and a half in the evening on Tuesday, and it rained again in the night. At seven in the morning on Wednesday, there was another spell of rain. It was enough to get Day 3 of the Test match abandoned at 9.30 am itself.
