The entire 2019 T20 Community Cup was washed out this month.
Bobbies Cricket Club, Christian Brothers College Old Boys Cricket Club, Robertson Cricket Club, Jeppe Quondam, Clares Cricket Club and United Cricket Club were scheduled to play 15 matches in Pretoria on 6, 7 and 8 December.
However, inclement weather didn’t allow for play on any of the three days. The Tshwane University of Technology Oval, Hammanskraal Mandela Oval and Sinovich Park were the host venues.
Cricket South Africa executive consultant Michael Owen-Smith confirmed the complete washout meant no new T20 Community Cup champion was crowned this month.
“Nobody wins this year,” Owen-Smith told Club Cricket SA.
