Final.

[Somerset]

Rain started to fall again and covers applied according to radio.

 

[Matt79]

Bloody rain - worst thing that could happen at the moment...

 

[pup11]

****, What the hell is this Agh.... i can see Ponting's decision back firing now if the game is shortened.

 

[UncleTheOne]

any idea on the lineup of the commentators today? please god don't let nicholas be there, he'll only ruin it for everyone.

 

[Matt79]

I'm sure Nicholas will be there, contributing his normal high-class and interesting commentary.



And no, I'm not being sarcastic....

 

[pup11]

Nicholas could be annoying at times but more or less he is a pretty decent commentrator.

 

[Matt79]

ch.9 showing the WC final from 1992, England v. Pakistan until the game starts... Normally be happy enough with that - but this freakin sucks!

Wonder why they didn't chose to show the 1996 final - would have been more apt.

EDIT: Haha, Derek Pringle and Chris Lewis opening the bowling for England...

 

[pasag]

fffffffffffffffffs

 

[pup11]

Any further updates about the weather guys, and how much time needs to be lost before the game gets shortened?

Somebody said something about a 45 over match.

10.25am A bit depressing. Everyone has deserted the outfield and is seeking shelter. No sign of any relief, either.

 

[dinu23]

10.30am The off-on-off nature of the day continues. The rain has eased and the covers are coming off.

 

[The_Bunny]

Covers coming off I think
