The first ODI between Australia and England at Headingley was abandoned due to heavy rains without a ball being bowled.
After several inspections, umpires called off the match at 6 pm IST, more than three hours after the match was supposed to start. This is the second consecutive ODI to be abandoned at this venue after England’s clash with West Indies being called off.
England had rested five players from their Ashes winning squad for the ODI series. After losing the Ashes 3-0, Australia leveled the two-match T20I series 1-1.
The next of the five-match series will be played at Old Trafford, Manchester on Sunday.
