Rain and bad light put an end to the top-of-the table clash between Bermuda and USA in Ontario on Friday. Bermuda needed to score 163 in 24 overs when the match resumed after a lengthy rain delay, but bad light soon put an end to the play in the third over. The match was later abandoned and declared a no result.
A partnership of 168 runs in 24 overs between Sushil Nadkarni (83) and captain Steve Massiah (81) set the USA on their way to a large total but two rain interruptions meant their innings was eventually deemed to have closed after the second stoppage. The USA made 213 for 4 in just under 35 overs.
Bermuda have completed their matches and end with three wins and a no result. The championship depends on the outcome of the USA v Canada game that is being played on Saturday at King City. A win for the USA might give them the championship, depending on overall run rate. The USA has two wins and this no result going into their final match.
