KOLKATA, India (AP) — Half-centuries from openers Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya went in vain as Punjab Kings' Indian Premier League game against Kolkata Knight Riders was abandoned because of rain on Saturday.
Both teams shared one point each. Punjab rose to fourth while defending champion Kolkata stayed seventh.
Punjab made 201-4 and Kolkata was 7 without loss when play was stopped and never restarted.
A thunderstorm blew debris all over the stadium and the ground staff had to hold down the covers with the help of rocks. Match officials finally called off play at 11 p.
