Third test abandoned

And so our (not very long) summer of cricket has drawn to a rather damp close.

This summer we didn't have a tour by Zimbabwe and next year we can look forward to not seeing India. At least New Zealand's dwindling number of cricket supporters have the winter to look forward to. We might not be able to go to the grounds and we might not be able to watch during sociable hours, but at least our side will actually be playing cricket when it visits South Africa next month.
