Sri Lanka to complain over abandonment of 4th ODI vs. Australia
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SYDNEY, Australia — Sri Lanka cricket captain Mahela Jayawardene says his team will officially complain to the match referee over the abandonment of Sunday’s fourth one-day international, which may have cost it the chance to win the five-match series.
Umpires Marais Erasmus of South Africa and Paul Reiffel of Australia made the decision to call off the match early in the second innings after a spell of heavy rain left the outfield at the Sydney Cricket Ground damp and slippery.
Sri Lanka was 14 without loss in the fourth over of its innings, replying to Australia’s moderate total of 222 for nine. A win would have given it a 3-1 lead in the series and a rare series win over Australia at home.
