Tuesday, 11 June 2019 08:18

South Africa and the West Indies have shared points after rain had the final say in their World Cup match on Monday.

The Proteas were on 29 for 2 when wet weather at Southampton forced the players off the field.

The result means that South Africa are still winless in the tournament, while the West Indies move up to fifth in the points table.

Tuesday's World Cup match features Bangladesh taking on Sri Lanka.

Both teams have won once so far in the tournament in the three matches they've played.

Play from Bristol gets underway at 1:30 pm UAE time.
