Any news on whether Australia and Pakistan are likely to play each other today? Or was that just a rumor? The only mention of it that I saw of it was a quick comment in the cricinfo text commentary of the SAF vs Sri Lanka match last night...

Very nicely done. Did you write this before the home series vs Sri Lanka?Mr Mxyzptlk said:
I hope that Ponting's stats against India in India will be as good as they were down here (and less like the last time he toured!)...

Youre right about not changing the rules halfway...but common sense and experience( ICC Champions trophy finals 2002) should have held sway beforehand.Swervy said:
BTW , the reason I wanted the match to be continued the next day was that they were showing a preview of the Aus-Pak match. And the reporter in the stadium specifically pointed out that it was a wonderful day without a drop of rain throughout

Hey what's wrong with the coverage? It has been great for me after watching the Asia Cup with Ary's commentary team. I like Slats and there are Sanjay , Ramiz, Barry ,etc,. Pretty good say i'd say compared to the Asia Cup coverage.
The stadium is packed with expats
Well, this whole tournament is fast becoming a mockery. I had tickets for Ind vs Aus on Monday and Pak vs Aus on Wednesday...which means I now have paid 86 Euros for 31.2 overs of cricket...
The good thing is I had a great time listening to Indian and Australian supporters taunting each other on Monday, watched a great little innings by Michael Clarke, fine bowling by Balaji and 'that catch' by Sehwag. Oh, and the ticket for Wednesday is valid for the final on Saturday.
As for the size of the field: it is very small. Actually, normally the boundaries are a bit further out. But then there's a tree inside the boundaries and apparently that wasn't the way they wanted it to be this time. Oh well. Because of the wet conditions, the outfield is incredibly slow and the pitch takes sharp turn, so 4's and 6's are still at a premium. Looking forward to Saturday!
