Ludhiana, August 22

Rain played spoilsport as the first day’s proceedings in the second match between Ludhiana and Mohali in group B of the Inter-District Cricket Championship for Katoch Shield were washed out on Sunday. The match is being played at the grounds of Hara School of Cricket, Baddowal.

Ludhiana skipper Nehal Wadhera won the toss and opted to bat first. Hosts were off to a cautious start and were at six without loss after 6.3 overs when it began raining, forcing the players to rush back to the pavilion. The play could not resume due to wet and slushy outfield.
