No, there is a difference between a suspended and an abandoned match. A suspended game refers to the situation where a game has been temporarily stopped awaiting a continuation. Such break can be caused because of rain, lightning, bad visibility or unsafe conditions. A match that is abandoned on the other hand implies the complete abandonment of the game and will not be resumed. This knowledge of the suspended match in cricket will save confusion to the fans who sometimes in the course of a match there will be a suspension which is just a delay and not the termination of the match. In case of an improvement in the conditions, the match is resumed at the same point it was interrupted. However, in case of a lack of time or the circumstances being unfavorable, the officials can call the match off. In over limited forms it may result in a no result or a new target by the use of DLS rules.
