Yorkshire director of cricket Martyn Moxon admitted to being deeply frustrated after his side's t20 match with Warwickshire was abandoned because of rain last night.
The Tykes had reduced their hosts to 138-5 after 18 overs at Edgbaston when the poor weather arrived.
"We were satisfied with our position in the game when the weather came," said Moxon.
"It would have been a really good match. If we could have finished their innings well, then it would have been well within our capabilities to knock them off."
Moxon's disappointment was justified after an impressive bowling display had looked like putting Yorkshire into a good position.
It started perfectly for the Tykes, after they had won the toss and elected to field, when England star Jonathan Trott was run-out off just the second ball of the match for only one.
A mix-up with Neil Carter was the reason for his demise, before the South African began to make amends in front of a disappointing crowd of 4,200 in Birmingham.
Together with William Porterfield he quickly moved the score on to 54-1 by the eighth over, until Azeem Rafiq removed his leg stump to leave Warwickshire two down.
Ajmal Shahzad then got rid of Darren Maddy for nine, before Rafiq returned to help oust Porterfield for 34 with a stunning catch on the square-leg boundary.
Rich Pyrah was the bowler, and with the Bears then losing Darren Maddy for eight to slump to 110-5, the Tykes were in control.
By this stage the drizzle had turned to rain, but with Jim Troughton enjoying himself at the expense of the returning Tim Bresnan, there was at least something for the home fans to celebrate.
The Warwickshire captain made his way to 49 by the end of the 18th over, when the weather closed in.
Moxon said: "It is difficult to judge what would have happened but we were in with a decent shout of winning."
