The final group game of The Hundred women’s competition, between Birmingham Phoenix and Manchester Originals, was abandoned because of rain at Edgbaston.
Both teams were out of contention for the play-offs before the game began and only 70 balls were bowled before the downpour.
Phoenix were well-placed at 98-2 with Australia all-rounder Ellyse Perry unbeaten on 45 from 39 balls.
England bowler Lauren Filer had earlier pinned opener Sterre Kalis lbw for 18 and seamer Phoebe Graham dismissed Fran Wilson for 14.
After a winless 2023, Phoenix have improved to win three games in this year’s Hundred but still only finished seventh in the table.
Originals have also struggled for consistency, winning three and losing four to finish above Phoenix only on net run-rate.
