LONDON: The West Indies´ opening T20 international against Ireland was washed out after heavy rain in Bready on Thursday.
The three-match series was due to start at 1500 local time (1400GMT), but damp conditions forced the umpires to abandon the clash without a ball being bowled. West Indies are looking to bounce back after 3-0 series losses to England in both the one-day international and T20 formats. The second match of the T20 series in Ireland is scheduled for Saturday.
