    The final of the women's Super Smash Twenty20 competition continues to be hampered by persistent rain in Wellington

    The final of the women's Super Smash Twenty20 competition continues to be hampered by persistent rain in Wellington


    Once the rain clears it will take 45 minutes to prepare the ground, meaning there will be a significant reduction in the number of overs in the contest between the Wellington Blaze and Auckland Hearts.

    The men's final, also between Wellington and Auckland is schedule to start at the same ground at 4.10pm.
