Relentless rain forced the abandonment of the second T20 International between the England and Australian women's cricket teams at the Adelaide Oval with only 4.1 overs possible on Saturday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Australia had won the opening T20I at the same venue by nine wickets. The third and final T20I will be played on January 23, which will be followed by a one-off Test and three ODIs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
After a delayed start, the match was reduced to 14-overs-a-side, with Australia winning the toss and opting to field first to make use of any moisture in the surface.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Danni Wyatt and Tammy Beaumont walked out to bat and got the visitors off to a solid start. Wyatt was the aggressor while Beaumont was more cautious in her approach as the visitors reached a score of 25\/0 in the 4.1 overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Australia tried five different bowlers but captain Meg Lanning could not find the breakthrough, although they kept the scoring rate in check.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rain arrived again and didn't relent this time as the match was finally called off. The result meant both teams shared one point each with Australia leading the multi-format series 3-1 with a win in the opening encounter.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
