The pitch looks damp but also looks a good pitch for batting. Bit of green but not too alarming for the batters. Considering the overcast conditions probably will help the bowlers. Just now it has started to rain :mad: Not too heavy but light drizzle.

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** Whats the forcast? More rain or it clearing?

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** Still raining but not heavily. It doesn't look a match threatning weather at the moment. The drainage system at the ground is supposed to be good and the game will take place. Akram was talking about Pathan and he just said Pathan doesn't approach him anymore. Akram thinks he is going through a rough patch like anyone but looked a little disappointed he is not being consulted by Pathan anymore :huh:

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** Nah, it's stopped. Play will be underway soon. But stay tuned for Mr. Duckworth and Dr. Lewis' guest appearances later on...

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** I hate those two.

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** Predator, last checked it was still raining although not heavily. The outfield is a bit damp but given the drainage system looks like the ground will dry quite quickly. Also the super soppers are in place already. I thought there will be a delay of atleast 1 hour. The covers are still on mind ya.

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** Still raining but apparently it is easing :eew:

[King]

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** Now it is raining heavily and the groundsman thinks it is going to be like this through out the day. He thinks it will subside after this heavy pour and he says it will take atleast 1 hour more to even get the game underway after it stops raining.

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** I reckon play will begin in an hour and a half. BTW, when was the last time India actually benefitted from D & L ? :huh:

[King Tendulkar]

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** Rain looks very heavy. I am not very optimistic of play

[jf1gp_1]

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** game to start in 50 mins around 9.20 est. reduced to 43 overs per side

[King]

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** Nope the covers are now back on. Just when it looked like it had stopped raining it started again and the covers have just went back on. I think the number of overs is going to change again.

Re: *****Official topic - SA v Ind 1st ODI***** Doesn't look like we are going to get any cricket. Well better 4-0 than 5-0.
