I mean the ground needs to be dried first, it not raining isn't enough to get play underway.
But yes, some of cricket's regulations been too arachic.

Actually the stupid logic is what makes cricket great

Why is cricket obsessed with losing fans.
There is zero reason why lunch shouldn't have been taken by now.
Why wait 20 minutes for lunch. Absolutely pathetic.

Can someone also explain why they don't have covers for the outfield.
If a concert is on at cricket grounds in England they cover the outfield?

It’s irrelevant in this case as ground won’t be ready for an hour or so in any event

A rolling lunch where players can go off for a total of 45 minutes during the day to eat.

I eat mine usually 1330-1430
In one of my old jobs I'd occasionally get given a lunch break at 11:45 anytime before 1300 is too early for me.

Yeah that one was the worst because it didn't really make sense, a glitch in the matrix.

They really need to use the covers they use for concerts to keep the outfield dry in weeks like this.
Waste an hour of time everytime it rains.
Need to get some of the groundsman from Sri Lanka and Bangladesh that cover the whole outfield in on a secondment.

Nah the umpire starts having trouble seeing through his sunglasses by about 5.

The covers used in co certs (assuming your talking about something like ArmourDeck) takes a crew of 25 approx 6 hours to cover a football pitch, needs underlays of fabric to protect the grass rolled out first, and the takes that same 25 man crew about 7 hours to pick up again.
So I'd respectfully suggest the concert style coverings are not the way.
