    "editor1": "<p><strong>Sydney, October 30<\/strong> - The three-day practice match between Cricket Australia (CA) XI and New Zealand at the Blacktown International Sportspark was abandoned after agreement between the two teams here on Friday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;The decision has been agreed between the two teams to abandon the match due to the wicket&#39;s deteriorating surface becoming unfit for first-class cricket. Preparation of the wicket was compromised by poor weather conditions in Sydney early this week,&quot; CA head of cricket operations Sean Cary said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;In response, we&#39;re working with New Zealand Cricket (NZC) to provide alternative preparation for the team ahead of next week&#39;s first Test.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>CA XI ended Day 1&#39;s play at 376 for no loss on Thursday and lost their first wicket -- Ryan Carters (209) -- with the score reading 503 on Friday. Following the dismissal, the umpires decided to abandon the match with Aaron Finch batting on 288.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The first of the three Tests between Australia and New Zealand will start on November 5 in Brisbane.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>(IANS)<\/p>\r\n",
