The Carling Currie Cup Premier Division match between the Sharks and the Vodacom Bulls, scheduled to take place in Durban on Saturday afternoon, has been cancelled.

Due to the heavy flooding in KwaZulu-Natal and the considerable loss of life and infrastructure damage across the province, and out of respect to their community in the face of the disaster the province is enduring, the two teams have agreed to cancel this encounter.

As there was no alternative option to reschedule the match, the result will be declared a draw and the log points will be shared, with each team awarded two log points.
