Cricket: Weather disrupts Quaid Trophy again

Multan could not continue their innings due to bad light at the Multan Cricket Stadium.

KARACHI: The two matches at the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy, which were extended by a day due to bad weather, received the same fate yesterday with the teams sharing a point each after the culmination of the second round. Multan, who were on 77 for three in reply to Quetta’s first innings total of 210, could not continue their innings due to bad light at the Multan Cricket Stadium. Bahawalpur’s encounter with Lahore Shalimar also ended in a draw after weather prevented play for the fourth successive day. Only 30 overs could be bowled in the entire match, with Bahawalpur scoring 77 for three. The third round of the tournament will begin today.
