The hosts went into the game 2-1 down in the best-of-four contest but saw their hopes destroyed by the weather.

An earlier downpour had already seen the contest delayed and then reduced to 49 overs a side.

But with the home side on 27 for one after 7.3 overs a further deluge saw the contest called off.

In the 45 balls that were bowled, the most notable incident was the dismissal of Chris Gayle, the Windies skipper edging Ishant Sharma to wicketkeeper Mahendra Singh Dhoni for a duck.

Runako Morton and Ramnaresh Sarwan had both reached 12 not out when the rain returned.
