Rain delays third Ashes T20 in Adelaide

The start of the final Twenty20 of the women's Ashes series between Australia and England has been delayed by rain.

After Saturday's clash was washed out through persistent rain, poor weather continued to hang around Adelaide Oval on Sunday.

No toss was possible at the scheduled time of 1:10pm local, with covers still out on the ground.

Play will have to begin by 3:37pm (ACDT) for a match to be allowed.

It comes after Australia quick Tayla Vlaeminick was ruled out of the rest of the summer with a stress fracture in her foot, ending her Ashes and ruling her out of the upcoming World Cup.

Australia have a 3-1 points lead in the series, with each of the three T20s and three ODIs worth two points each.

The one-off Test in Canberra next week is worth four points.
