Rain has spoilt Alana King's annihilation of the Pakistan batting order as Australia continued their Commonwealth Games warm-up in their T20 clash in Northern Ireland.

Only eight overs in the Tri-Series opener were completed with the match in Derry washed out with the Australians delivering a mixed bag from their bowling spell.
