if it stops raining, the ground will be ready in no time as happened in last match
|

Interesting that you are all taking positions on this market having not looked at the radar... I wouldnt be laying No for the next few hours anyway...
|
|
By:
Will not be completed. Pretty obvious.
|
|
By:
 look at the outfield  |
|
By:
check the satellite pictures http://www.accuweather.com/en/lk/national/satellite

By:
gazza. Doesn't look too bad...
|
|
By:
Seems to be getting a bit brighter, but that might just be my monitor lol :-)
|
|
By:
NZ should certainly get 20 overs in...
|
|
By:
there is movement in cmm...rain eased up?
|
|
By:
rain stopped?
|
|
By:
Also you have to question how quickly they want to get the pitch ready, for all the other games rushing has made Sri Lanka win comfortably. They might not be in a rush today!

Think it will be touch and go personally... radar indicates it could ctually rain non stop for next few hours. There is also a hell of a lot of water on covers which will take time to clear. Feasibly have a 4 hour delay here... if that is the case GSM CMM.
|

By:
rain has stopped...
|
|
By:
?
|
|
By:
Great. So should be back on in half an hour or so...
|
|
By:
At the very worst, they will say that NZ innings is over and SL go into bat with a target set for them to get in 20 overs... Happened the other day...

Betfire is lying - reports from ground state it is still raining heavily... This was posted 1 minute ago
Roshan Abeysinghe @RoshanCricket I am afraid its still raining and no letting up at all. Pools of water on the covers and out side the playing perimeter too. |
|
By:
it's true that rain has stopped????????????????
|
|
By:
Just got to look at the betfair video to see it's still raining, but does look a little clearer
|
|
By:
Radar has it raining for another couple of hours from what i can tell.
|
|
By:
anybody know the cut off time?
|
|
By:
Second Session 18.45-22.15 - so they need to be out there by 2100 to bowl 20 overs which is 1530 uk time
|
|
By:
You haven't accounted for the extra hour provided under the playing conditions
 |
|
By:
when/if it stops raining , the sri lankan groundsmen aint gonna be in a hurry to mop are they ...
|
|
By:
assuming no changes from last match, cut off time is 2315 local time.
|
|
By:
you sure? means they will play past midnight...? seems late, not saying its wrong just seems very late
|
|
By:
no, they wont play past midnight.
the game has to be complete by 2315. the one thing i'm not sure of is whether there has to be time for 20 overs of the kiwis innings. given that the 20 over target is probably going to be under a 100, they would need considerably less than 20 overs to knock it off. let's assume there needs to be 20 overs, in which case you've got a decision being made at 2115 local time. |

By:
sorry - 2145
|
|
By:
Ah ok - that makes sense now...
|
|
By:
updated satellite pics have this rain for another couple of hours :(
|
|
By:
Sure about that Bravado?
|
|
By:
Looks that way to me... I am by no means a meteorologist.. but looks like there may be a small break of 30 mins and then a load more hitting and will be there for a while. As such I have taken a position of No on CMM.
|
|
By:
radar images r bad...but why is cmm no is still 1.9?
|
|
By:
Looks like it's stopped but that doesn't mean there isn't more on the way :-)
|
|
By:
Bravado. I see you only use information that suits your book. You haven't mentioned this:
Roshan Abeysinghe @RoshanCricket Its still raining but a very thin drizzle so hopefully we should see the end of the rain soon and with it some play may be??? |
|
By:
i think the 20 over target is 80 runs give or take a few for published tables/professional tables.
|
|
By:
if the rain stops later in the night, will they put nzl straight into bat for 20 overs? or will there be some for lankans?
|
|
By:
Roshan confirms it is 20 overs...
|
|
By:
people loading up on cmm no...
|
|
By:
Jeremy that was posted after I posted - it was also updated on cricinfo... I was providing my interpretation of the weather radar and state looks like could ease up for 30 mins before it hits again hard.
