Australia's Steve Smith frustrated by Oval abandonment - wi - 06-06-2017
"The groundsmen perhaps could have had more urgency, but I think they did the best job they could," said Smith.
"I was happy to keep playing through the rain. But the umpires are there to make a decision.
"There was a drinks break at the end of that over which probably didn't help. If the game had carried on perhaps they would have had a different opinion. But to be fair it was raining quite heavily."

Delicious possibility of Australia going through on a NRR of 0 in spite of a washout if NZ/BD play a close match & both have a neg NRR

The Aussies would probably have been through if they hadn't been so cruelly and unfairly denied of a certain victory against Bangladesh.
