Rain throughout the morning led to the second day of Lancashire's County Championship match against Nottinghamshire being abandoned at 12:30 BST.

A saturated outfield at Old Trafford meant it was a fairly straightforward decision for umpires Ian Blackwell and Hassan Adnan to draw a line under proceedings at the scheduled lunch interval.

It means no play has been possible so far, with a draw looking a highly likely outcome even if the two teams manage to take to the field in the next two days.
