Course it happens when it's gonna piss down all day

Stories I read says there's a decent chance he'll play anyway as his symptoms are mild

Looking ahead to tomorrow’s game, things aren’t looking good. The weather forecast is poor.

And sadly it’s delivering said forecast right now
13 degrees and showers
Loads of rain was dumped on Melbourne yesterday.

This tournament is an absolute mess.
An unnecessary one at that too.

 

[McGregor]

It's suiting Australia perfectly all this rain. Typical really. It'll be beautiful sunshine for their two easier opponents in Ireland and Afghanistan.

Why are they having it so early in the year? Why not in the actual Australian summer?

Big Bash
ODI v England
Tests against West Indies and South Africa in December

Why are they having it so early in the year? Why not in the actual Australian summer?

It's re-arranged so they had to squeeze it in somewhere.

Got to be said, my interest is waning rapidly in the tournament. The only highlight has been the odd shock result.

They've removed the covers and dumped gallons of water on the square

Suits Australia for the game to be abandoned.

From the radio it sounds like both captains bottled it

According to the BBC England " need a win to qualify " . Is that correct ? I have looked at the group table. Surely that must be wrong

Think that's factoring in who the two teams have left to play.

How convenient

Not really up on the T20 format but I suspect that it might have benefitted England with Ireland's game washed out.

Cricket really doesn’t help itself at times.

It feels like they try to find a reason to not play before worrying about how they can get the game on.

 

[pete121]

You can't play if it's not safe I want to see a game bit only if its a proper twenty over match not a five over slog and with England's last two games I'm not very confident about getting through

If this game is abandoned we'll have 3 points so will Aus. We've got New Zealand and Sri Lanka left to play. Aus have Ireland and Afghanistan so they'd be favourites.
