Hafnarfjördur won by 31 runs (DLS method) Full scorecard
The Hammers made it two in two with an emphatic win as the Volcano struggled against scoreboard pressure and the onset of foul Arctic weather. Fernando, now opening the batting, went off like a rocket as he peppered the leg side with aerial shots. He reached the boundary 15 times in his 37 balls, clearing it twice. There was no respite when he departed, either, as Bandara replaced him and merely continued the onslaught. In fact, he scored even faster, hitting four sixes in his better than a run-a-ball innings; this was his 19th half-century. Ramachandran and Kotian bowled well, combining for figures of 7—1—42—2, but the rest of the bowlers combined to return 13—0—150—1. Even if Kotian had bowled his final over, it might not have made much of a difference as Javed Miakhiel quickly knocked over Lee Nelson. Dreyer and Ghosh made a half-century stand, but as the rain came, so did the collapse and Vesturbær lost wickets regularly until the weather had the final say.
Reykjavík v Kópavogur
Match abandoned Full scorecard
It quickly became clear, as the rain spread from the south east, that the same squall that curtailed the Vesturbær innings would also put paid to the second game of the day. The umpires and captains agreed that the match would have to be abandoned.
