Thousands of fans were already inside the Riverside ground when the game was called off 12 minutes before the start because Yorkshire had fielded an ineligible player, 17-year-old Azeem Rafiq, in a group match 10 days earlier. The ECB disciplinary panel are set to meet on Thursday to decide what action to take, although chief executive David Collier claimed the incident stemmed from Yorkshire's failure to register Rafiq as a first-class player.
