Heavy rain washed out the final of the Nairobi Tri-Series between hosts Kenya and Zimbabwe on Saturday.

It was the fourth consecutive game scheduled for the Nairobi Gymkhana ground to be washed out without a ball being bowled.

Overnight rain had delayed the planned 9.30am (local time) start and then the outfield failed to dry despite the sunshine. Play was officially called off an hour later with the teams sharing trophy.

Only three matches were possible in the tournament, with each team

winning a game. Ireland failed to make the final on the basis of net

run-rate.
