Big Bash League match abandoned due to 'dangerous' pitch

Melbourne Renegades' opening home match of the ongoing Big Bash League (BBL) season against Perth Scorchers at GMHBA Stadium in Victoria's South Geelong was called off on Sunday due to 'dangerous' pitch. The umpires took players off the field after 6.5 overs of Perth Scorchers' innings. The pitch had variable bounce after water seeped under the covers during overnight rain.
