Its gonna make it tougher to bat as we have seen last match

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

10 wickets have tumbled in 22 overs.

 

[Shri]

dre russ has taken half his t20i career wickets in WCs at an avg of 20 and an eco of 8

2 wickets lost so SA will get a stiffer target if overs are lost.

SA, NRR disadvantage, must win game, rain. It's like nature conspires against SA in world cups.

10:57pm The covers are coming off too now. All eyes on the drainage now, and on how quickly we can get back on.

10:52pm A positive update from Mel, who is at the ground. She says it has stopped raining. West Indies will hope it stays that way for the next couple of hours or so. We start losing overs at 11:21pm local time, which is about half an hour from now. And there are a few puddles the ground staff will have to work on.

Although they are saying rain has stopped

weather radar looks bad. Probably a washout based on whats to come, unless they can sneak in 3 more overs

Washout would mean SA would progress as they would have 5 points

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

The par score at five overs, if SA are two wickets down, is 34. If they are three wickets down, it is 40.

The par score at five overs, if SA are two wickets down, is 34. If they are three wickets down, it is 40.

But the target they will get if match is reduced to 5 overs will be much higher.
