Wellington, March 8: Not a single ball was bowled as rain washed out day one of the second Test between New Zealand and Bangladesh at the Basin Reserve.
Heavy rain lashed a dark and gloomy Wellington, where the coin toss was delayed with players kept away from the soggy field on Friday (March 8).
Umpires finally abandoned play at 15:00 local time, with the Test scheduled to start 30 minutes earlier on Saturday (March 9).
Bangladesh are looking to level the three-Test series after losing the opener by an innings and 52 runs in Hamilton.
