The second day's play in the three-day match between India 'A' and the Australians was called off in Hyderabad on Wednesday without a ball being bowled due to a wet outfield because of heavy rain.

The umpires inspected the ground at 1230 hours IST, three hours after the scheduled start of the day's play, and ruled out play.

On the first day, only two hours play was possible due to wet outfield and bad light.

Australia [Images] are 82 for three at stumps with Marcus North and George Balley unbeaten on 14 and nine respectively.

The third day is also likely too be delayed by inclement weather with more rains forecast in the next 24 hours in the city.
