Rain had the final say as both the matches involving the two teams were called off after huge puddles on the outfield turned the Sardar Patel Stadium in Ahmedabad into almost a lake on Monday.
The abandonment meant the two teams got two points each from their respective matches. It would be hard to tell whether both teams were happy with the split points.
Otago made their Champions League debut on the back of some impressive performances during the qualification stage of the tournament.
On the other hand, Scorchers will be banking on captain and veteran Simon Katich and limited overs specialist Adam Voges in the batting department.

Otago Volts: Brendon McCullum (Capt.), Nicholas Beard, Michael Bracewell, Neil Broom, Ian Butler, Mark Craig, Derek de Boorder, Jacob Duffy, James McMillan, James Neesham, Aaron Redmond, Hamish Rutherford, Ryan ten Doeschate, Neil Wagner.
