England v New Zealand: Kevin Pietersen's return a non-event as rain forces Twenty20 abandonment The match started in light rain but the umpires took the players off moment after England lost their first wicket. Michael Lumb was caught at second slip off Mitchell McLenaghan but as next batsman Luke Wright walked out to bat the rain started falling harder. The rain eased at one stage enough for the umpires to decide a six overs-a-side thrash could take place but the weather forced an abandonment with full refunds for the crowd. Earlier in the day, Eoin Morgan was ruled out of the match with a broken finger that will require surgery. James Tredwell continued his rise as an England one-day specialist by being named as captain for the night.
