The historic one-off Test between New Zealand and Afghanistan was called off due to inclement weather and a wet outfield at the Shaheed Vijay Singh Pathik Stadium in Greater Noida on Friday, September 13.
"It is still raining in Greater Noida and due to frequent rains, the 5th and final day of Afghanistan vs New Zealand test has been also called off by the match officials," Afghanistan Cricket Board said in a statement.
Afghanistan, having displayed excellent form in limited-overs cricket, was expected to provide a tough contest. However, no play occurred, not even the toss, as weather conditions prevented the game from starting.
