Last season's Women's Super Smash finalists the Central Hinds have become the first team to be officially knocked out of contention this year.
The result came after no toss or play was possible in their match against Northern Brave at Seddon Park in Hamilton on Tuesday.

Weather ruined the rematch between last summer's elimination finalists, at the same ground, as well as the final appearance this season by the women's top run-scorer, the Hinds' England pro Hollie Armitage.
Armitage now returns to South Australia to continue playing in the Australian women's one-day competition.
Caught on the margins of a storm sweeping across the upper north, the lingering dampness saw a lengthy wait for the Brave and Central to see if any play would be possible in their Super Smash contest.
However, the match was also eventually abandoned with no toss made, with both sides taking two points.
