It's a clown car, full of clowns.

There's no option for Time Outs?

Maybe locals can convince us otherwise as to how anything except a washout is a possibility based on this photo below apparently taken just over 2 hours ago, with the match just over 24 hrs away.

Couple minutes of the super sopper should do the trick

It could rain in one street and not rain about a 100 yards away in the next street over there in Bengaluru. Its a funny place when it comes to weather.

Sounds like Melbourne

Looks quite gloomy today, can't see the Sun.

all the better for NZ

Maybe Boult can take some wickets in the Powerplay for a change.

Fck , 90-100% chances of rain, during early match hours

SL have nothing to lose. Most players will be sacked after the WC, they'll play with complete freedom. NZ will be worried about the weather and qualification. This game is going to be interesting, hope it's a close one.

The forecast was similar for the NZ-Pak game but we got a rain-curtailed game. The recent pattern in Bangalore has been overnight rain and a slight drizzle at best during day time, slim chance of a washout.

Don't believe this. They had same forecast for NZ-Pak match from 10am onwards.

 

[straw man]

First time NZ have a fully fit squad, according to reports. Will make the selection interesting.

I assume they'll continue with Ish Sodhi, after lizard Fakhar Zaman escaped with his life by mere metres from the king of the desert and friends last match.

 

[straw man]

seriously though I think Ferguson should play

Edit: Sodhi, Chapman, Young and Jamieson on the bench imo. Far from the biggest fan of Southee in ODIs, though he was quietly decent last match.

 

[Adorable Asshole]

You want NZ to lose this match?

 

[straw man]

Could take a massive punt on Jamieson, I guess, though means only one of he and Southee get the new ball.

Nah, I want Ferguson.

Yeah it's a classic
