Rain washes out play in Edgbaston

Updated June 08, 2012 08:10:11

Rain washed out the first day of the third and final Test between England and West Indies at Edgbaston.

Persistent rain fell all day, after heavy rain overnight, and play was finally called off in the afternoon.

England is seeking a 3-0 series sweep after wins at Lord's and Nottingham.

The last time a full day of Test cricket was lost to the weather in England was in 2009 when the third day was washed out against Australia, also at Edgbaston.
