No play was possible on the first day of the County Championship match between Derbyshire and Glamorgan because of heavy morning rain.

Umpires Graham Lloyd and Billy Taylor called play off early at 13:40 BST because of a wet outfield at Derby.

Eight overs extra will be added to the duration of days two and three, when the weather forecast is better.

The 2016 match between the two sides at Derby was interrupted by snow, sleet and hailstorms.

Their 2015 encounter at Chesterfield also ended in a draw after multiple rain interruptions.
