An unsafe pitch forced umpires to make the decision to call off the one-day game between Yarraville and Werribee in the Victorian Sub-District Cricket Association.
The start of play was delayed due to spots of water on the pitch and damp run-ups, but play eventually got under way.
After Yarraville had compiled 4-47 off 16.5 overs, the umpires noticed one or two balls unnaturally kicking up at batsmen and decided to abandon the match for player safety.
Both captains were willing to continue on with the game, but the umpires overruled and the points were split three apiece.
It means that Yarraville ended the round they way it started, sitting in fourth spot on the ladder.
The Eagles have a significant 12-point gap over the rest of the chasing pack ahead of their two-day contest against Taylors Lakes at Lionheart Reserve starting on Saturday.
