There is rain out there, the like of which I can barely remember seeing.

Hosing it down apparently. I guess the issue will be drainage and drying out time if it does stop.

I swear I've not commentated on a single over of cricket in this tournament, it's just been endless rain.

I'm like a water diviner, except instead of finding water in the ground wherever I place my stick, it's that wherever I live text there is rain.

Not getting a game are we. RIP.

There should have been reserve days for this tournament given that a lot of rain was expected in this tournament.

 

[GIMH]

If they get a 2 over slot they should do a Super Over just in case

Apparently Josh Hazlewood got worried about that Spirit of Cricket malarkey and didn't want Mitch Marsh to get banned, so arranged some convenient cloud seeding.

 

[Brook's side]

Nobody can take those 3.1 overs away whatever happens.
Not even God.

 

[BazBall21]

Won't hurt as much as the 2019&2023 ashes

This makes a change from waiting for the rain to clear for the tennis in Nottingham at least.

It'll teach us right to get knocked out due to rain. That Australia performance, especially the bowling PP, was dreadful.

It did cross my mind that the weather today is down to the cricketing gods giving Jos the finger for bowling Jacks when he did. These things have consequences, don't you know.

pretty likely there'll be a result i would have thought.
