Rain wipes out play in 1st ODI between Sri Lanka and England

DAMBULLA, Sri Lanka (AP) — Rain wiped out play after just 15 overs of the first one-day international between Sri Lanka and England on Wednesday.

England had been asked to bat first by Sri Lanka skipper Dinesh Chandimal and reached 92-2 before play was called off.

Play got under way at the Ranjiri ground on schedule, but only a bit more than an hour's action was possible before a lengthy downpour began rendering the outfield unplayable despite extensive covering.
