[brandon]

On the telly today, 2pm. If the rain (and Allah) wills it.

 

[ProfessionalMackem]

Gonna be a good game. Hope the wicket isn't a bunsen.

 

[Safc_Luke]

No play, rained off is my prediction

They have Ajmal in their side - it'll be slow, low and turning square I'd imagine.

 

[Harry Lime]

Peeing down here, if it wasn't on sky I don't think they would hang about for long.

 

[Icarebecauseyoudo]

It's supposed to clear up, you weather fannies

 

[SR5 1SU]

Rain is clearing away. Should be ok.

 

[chopsfc007]

3.00 inspection.

is it going to be reduced overs then

 

[Harry Lime]

is it going to be reduced overs then

3.30 latest start before they start losing overs. The weather is fine at the moment buts there's a lot of water on the field being mopped up.

 

[chopsfc007]

only need 5 overs each for a game we need a win in this one so we need to hope rain holds

5.00 is the cut off time for a 5 over bash.

 

[brandon]

Is it still dry?

 

[Harry Lime]

Is it still dry?

It's not raining, the sun keeps poking through but the ground is soaked.

The new cut off time for a start is now 5.27, I don't why they've changed from 5.00?

Maybe it's because Sky are there

What happened at the 3pm inspection??

its now3-40

 

[Harry Lime]

They are hoping for a 4.00 start with 16 overs a side but parts of the out field are still very wet.

 

[brandon]

So does that mean overs have now been lost??

I don't know why they can't just wait until 5/6pm. They know the light will hold, that's what time our home games start. To take away 4 overs a side is just silly. It would only add 30 minutes onto the game.

 

[Parkside]

4.30 start with 13 overs a side rule the jobsworth umpires.
