HARARE: Heavy rain led to the abandonment of the first One-day International between Zimbabwe and Afghanistan at the Harare Sports Club in Harare on Tuesday.
Afghanistan won the toss and put the hosts into bat but it took four hours before any play was possible, with the game by then reduced to a 28 overs-a-side.
Azmatullah Omarzai took 4-18 in 4.2 overs as the visitors made good inroads to reducing Zimbabwe to 44-5 in the 10th over before the rain returned and ended hope of further play.
