Brisbane has been hit hard with areas of the city evacuated after its major river burst its banks in the central business district.

Queensland officials have not made any plans to delay their upcoming fixtures, with a domestic Twenty20 match set to be played on Saturday before England are due to meet Australia on January 30.

Cricket Australia have already announced the January 30 match will be dedicated to raising funds for the disaster.

England announced their players would donate part of their match fees from Wednesday's Twenty20 international at Adelaide towards the Queensland Premier's Flood Relief appeal, while Australia are set to announce further fundraising events during the limited overs series.
