'British Summer' Thwarts Australian Forces Cricketers

In cricket the Australian Defence Force were thwarted by the weather in the opening match of their 2016 tour.
 
The tourists had bowled out the UK Armed Forces Development side for just 168 in the game at Aldershot, but the match was abandoned due to rain. 
 
For the Australians the tour is a chance to take on their UK counterparts, but also to remember the Australians who served in two World Wars.
