Cricket: Today's One Day International between Ireland and Canada has been abandoned due to the poor weather in the capital.

The match had been due to get underway at Castle Avenue this morning but after initially being delayed due to rain, a decision was taken to call the match off this afternoon.

Last weekend's Intercontinental Cup clash between the two countries also fell foul of the weather on a frustrating few days for cricket fans.
