changing the ball in the 79th over, seen it all now

By:
seems to be a big problem with damp on the surface or maybe even beyond the boundaries! This is not good for the new ball and may help pakistan out
|
|
By:
half tempted to increase the speculative pakistan back but then this is pakistan!
|
|
By:
all that rain on the radar and no rain at the ground
|
|
By:
strange there is a price breakput on Pakistan but the new ball is due
|
|
By:
I dumped all my 5.3-back when they went off for rain at 2.1. Then laid some more. Now need wickets and no rain.
|

By:
This is strange. common sense but not quite right with regard to the rules and not fair on pakistan mnind you they probably want lunch too
|
|
By:
this is wrong.

I understand why but you have to follow rules and protocol. the batsmen should have stood up to it. I think the Umpires might well get a reprimand. What are the rules about a wet ball. I though in test cricket it was tough tittie
|

By:
This could be a lengthy delay, plenty of rain on the way

1.10pm Brydon says they are now covering the whole square. Must be expecting more rain. Don't know what that does to the 1.15pm inspection
|
|
By:
going to see 1.5 soon on the draw

rain should stop soon
|
|
By:
radar looks clear now but it must still be drizzling
|
|
By:
No rain for 25 mins now and no movement by the groundstaff, very strange
|

2.50 pm Still playing the waiting game, although we are informed that the next inspection is at 3.10 pm, which incidentally is the time tea was scheduled to be taken.

Ah - I was zoomed out too far on that one - http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDR021.loop.shtml
As for http://www.abc.net.au/melbourne/weather/radar.htm -it just looks like a see of green. They don't make them easy to interpret at all. |

* "sea of green" even

By:
This has been very poor by the umps/ground staff.
|
|
By:
Minimum 35 overs remaining today with the final session running from 3:30pm-6pm and play can be extended by 30 mins to get the overs in
|
|
By:
it will be raining again soon

Done well here, as have others it seems. Looks like more rain in this match, but draw too short for other than short term trades.
|
|
By:
Might only get another 150 overs in the whole game
|
|
By:
stumps
|
|
By:
The draw could go really low overnight once people digest the weather forecast for the next 3 days
|
|
By:
Well, I've cashed out and taken the hit. Looks like you're right about only 150 more overs (if we are lucky)

Aus and Pak odds should be reversed. Not enough overs for Aus to win.
