Rain falls in Cape Town

Champions League T20, Cape Town:

Mumbai Indians 156-6 (17.5 overs) v Yorkshire - no result (rain)

Yorkshire's Champions League T20 semi-final hopes were dented as rain ended their match with Mumbai Indians.

Mumbai started well at Cape Town as Dwayne Smith (37) hit four sixes, including two in the first three balls.

Rohit Sharma added a quick-fire 25 before two wickets in two balls from Azeem Rafiq (2-36) and Adil Rashid (2-42) halted Mumbai's progress at 86-4.

Kieron Pollard then smashed an unbeaten 37 from 20 balls before the rain came with Mumbai on 156-6 from 17.5 overs.

The no-result means group leaders Sydney Sixers have qualified for the semi-finals.

They will be joined by Highveld Lions unless the Tykes can beat the South African franchise on Saturday to keep the group alive.
