England secured victory in their three-match Twenty20 series against New Zealand, ending 1-0, after the final match at Eden Park was abandoned due to rain after just 3.4 overs.
The series opener at Hagley Oval was similarly disrupted by weather, leaving England's decisive 65-run win in the second game as the series highlight.
Discussions about the planners' decision to hold these matches in New Zealand's rainy spring season are surfacing, particularly given only two out of six scheduled games were completed. The teams will next face each other in a one-day international at Mount Maunganui on Sunday.
