The deciding third T20 between England and South Africa was called off without a single delivery being bowled due to persistent rain.
South Africa had taken the lead in the series with a 14-run win in a rain-affected opener last week. However, England hit back in dominant fashion on Friday, securing a record-breaking 146-run victory at Old Trafford thanks to Phil Salt’s unbeaten 141.
With the series level at 1-1, the final game at Trent Bridge was set to determine the winner. Unfortunately, wet weather arrived before the scheduled 14:30 BST start on Sunday and continued through the afternoon. With no let-up, the umpires officially abandoned the match around 16:20.
As a result, the T20 series ends in a draw.
Earlier in the tour, South Africa clinched the One Day International series 2-1.
England will now turn their attention to a three-match T20 series against Ireland, which begins in Dublin on Wednesday.
