The ninth match of the ongoing inaugural season of The Hundred (Women’s) between Manchester Originals and Northern Superchargers in Manchester became the first match of the tournament to get abandoned due to rain.

Torrential downpour and lightning over Old Trafford didn’t even allow for the toss to happen leave alone a single ball being bowled.
