Heavy rain in St. Lucia forced the second match of the 2015 Caribbean Premier League season to be abandoned after just four balls of the second innings. The points will be shared between the St. Lucia Zouks and Trinidad & Tobago Red Steel. 
 
The rain would’ve arguably come as a bigger disappointment to the St. Lucia Zouks, who registered the highest CPL score ever at the Beausejour Cricket Ground of 179-6 after they were put into bat by the Red Steel. 
 
Andre Fletcher and Johnson Charles got the Zouks innings off to a blistering start taking 31 from the first three overs. Charles fell in the fifth over to bring Kevin Pietersen to the crease. Fletcher and Pietersen combined brute force, daring cheek and sheer genius to put on 70 runs for the second wicket off just 8.5 overs. Fletcher finished with 57 (49) while Pietersen scored 42 (26).
 
Kallis was the pick of the bowlers and then hit a four and a six before the rain came
 
Red Steel captain Dwayne Bravo shuffled his bowlers well in the middle overs and between the eleventh and the seventeenth over the Zouks could only manage 40-2 from 36 deliveries. 
 
However, a powerful cameo from Henry Davids, who scored 27 (16) and assistance from Darren Sammy and Kyle Mayers helped St. Lucia Zouks plunder 52 from the final four overs to take them to their record home score of 179-6. 
 
Jacques Kallis was the pick of the Red Steel bowlers, taking 2-31 from his four overs, Samuel Badree and Kevon Cooper collected the one wicket each and there were two run outs. 
 
Kallis then hit a four and a six off the bowling of Shannon Gabriel at the start of the Red Steel innings before the rains came. 
 
The fans and players waited for two hours before the officials eventually called the match off. 
 
The next match in the CPL sees the 2013 champions Jamaica Tallawahs play 2014 champions the Barbados Tridents in Barbados on Tuesday.
