1:30 pm: It's been raining since 1pm. Nothing strong but intermittent drizzle. The covers are on and the outfield is obviously damp.
2:15 pm Rain still on. More covers are being added.
2:20 pm Decent crowd gathered, no where as large as Sunday's, but they're keeping busy waving stuff and playing a bit of music. The ground staff are standing around. Light drizzle in the air. "
2:40 pm Now almost the entire playing area is covered. Head curator standing under an umbrella in the middle. Doesn't look too good.
3:00 pm It's still drizzling. The covers are still on. There is nothing to do but wait.
3:10 pm The entire ground is covered. Quite a sight. Overcast skies. It doesn't look too good.
04:00 pm It's still drizzling. Spectators still trickling in, very optimistic." They can wait till 8:15 pm to make it 20 overs a side. We have a reserve day tomorrow in case there is no play today.
5:00 pm No any good news, because still raining but not heavy, just a relentless drizzle. If the rain stops, the game can begun in 60 to 90 minutes or so. But the rain has to stop first. Wait for next update.
5:50 pm Highly unlikely we will have any cricket this evening. Large puddles all across the plastic tarps. They will need plenty of time to drain the water. The drainage system here is not a reputed one.
6:00 pm Match has been called off, it means postponed to tomorrow. It will be played tomorrow on the reserve day
