Scotland and the Netherlands have tied their one-day-international series 1-1 after the third match was abandoned without a ball being bowled at Stirling County following heavy and persistent rain throughout the day.

The series was arranged at short notice as the Dutch women sought to regain their ODI ranking and avoid a substantial funding cut next year.

The visitors won the opening match by 58 runs at Clydesdale, with the Scots securing a convincing nine-wicket victory in a rain-affected second in Stirling.

However, it does mean that the Dutch have done enough to secure their ranking and much-needed funds.
