Cricketers claim they were assaulted and verbally abused by football fans going to a 'friendly' match at the home of Scottish rugby.
The match between Murrayfield DAFS Cricket Club and Stewart's Melville Cricket Club was abandoned on Saturday afternoon, shortly before the start of the fixture between Rangers and Manchester United.
Police Scotland has now launched an investigation.
The cricket tie was taking place at Edinburgh's Roseburn Park, which is situated a short distance from the rugby ground.
Murrayfield DAFS allege the abuse was perpetrated by football supporters heading to the game, and have criticised the lack of response from police officers positioned nearby.
