Fourth Test between West Indies and India hit by Saturday washout
Saturday 20 August 2016 19:16, UK
Rain and a soggy outfield continued to ruin the fourth Test between West Indies and India in Trinidad as play was washed out without a bowl being bowled on Saturday.
It means only 22 overs have been completed in three days at the Queen's Park Oval in Port of Spain.
West Indies reached 62-2 before lunch on Thursday with Kraigg Brathwaite 32 not out and Marlon Samuels undefeated on four.
The final match of the series now seems destined for a draw, with India already 2-0 up in the contest.
A draw will cost India top spot to Pakistan in the International Cricket Council rankings.
Former West Indies captain Viv Richards is among those critical of the apparent lack of modern equipment on hand to speed up the process of drying the outfield.
"Folks here have some questions to answer," he said. "Not having a super sopper is unacceptable."
