Captain Oliver Collins claimed Steyning did all they could in order for their Sussex League Division 3 West clash against Littlehampton to reach a finish.

The wet weather meant the fixture was abandoned at the Memorial Playing Fields after the hosts had been bowled out for just 120 in 33.5 overs.

However, Littlehampton captain James Askew has been critical of the decision to call the match off.But Collins believes light drizzle and then a 'torrential' downpour later in the afternoon meant there was no more that could have been done to avoid a no result.
