Persistent rain forced the first T20I between India and Australia in Canberra to be abandoned on Wednesday.
India were cruising at 97/1 in 9.4 overs when play was halted for the second time, leaving captain Suryakumar Yadav unbeaten on 39 and Shubman Gill on 37. Earlier, Abhishek Sharma gave India a brisk start, smashing four boundaries in a 19-run cameo before falling to Nathan Ellis. After a brief rain delay, Yadav and Gill accelerated the scoring, but the weather returned to end hopes of a result.
The teams will now face off in the second T20I at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Friday.
