Aussies need some one to play a good cameo here as the end off the inns hasnt really taken off yet!
 
With the batting lineup full of hitters and changing the match on will - India will be looking for atleast 300. Anything else will be uncivilized and not worth it

THe Aus India game will be washed out. I stay 40 kms away and it is really storming. Flash floods.

OK, not that bad, but it is like driving in a river.

Oh @#$%! :(
 
"She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stared too long
I'd probably break down and cry

Oh, sweet child o' mine
Oh, sweet love of mine..."

Oh, Willow. :D

I do not think its going to happen as the rain seems to be pretty much heavy and this match is going towards a wash out ....................

SL, SA, and Ind are out of CT almost .......
 
Come on DL Calculators, get some number crunching done!
What is the prognosis on India?
 
Had a look at weather forecasts for the week. Rain expected Tues, Wed and Sun in Jhb/Pta. So things are gonna be interesting.
 
Amazing poetic justice at play here.... ( if memory serves me right)

When Pak lost to India in the WC03, we had a similar situation where we had to win another match and it reduced to less overs due to rain - suffice to say we didnt win that...

Has it stopped raining yet JAF?
 
17.55 If Australia's innings ends now, India's target in 42 overs is 263. If its reduced to 20 overs then 153. I have asked our people at the ground for further updates about the rain. Stay tuned, be patient.

263 in 42 will be tough....but if its a 20 over game then india might achieve the 153
 
17.38 Rain has stopped play. It has got slightly heavier now. The covers come on. The players get back. Thunder and lightning
 
from DoublestandardsInfo,

Still raining (not storming), but remember I am a distance from the ground.

Have seen pictures from the ground and it is raining. There is a lot of water on the covers.

lalit modi will make sure that india only chase 100 in 20 overs.

Pls explain the connection? Its just the weather bhaiyo - even lalit or Modi cant control that !
 
They estimate an hour before covers can come off which isn't bad, but that is from South African commentators.
 
what those live pictures suggest might be Bye Bye for India too just like Saffies.
 
*cuts to room where DL method is calculated - Modi stands over calculator*

18.15 Still raining and the covers are still on. Rather heavy. Lots of lightning. There are many emails asking how India's target will be 263 in 42 overs. Let me try and clarify. This was computed via a D/L software. It is accurate. Australia have plenty of wickets in hand, so the system assumes they could have made the last seven count. Had they been 234 for 8 the target would have been 238. That is how the program works.

Ohh so you think Indian fans will not want to win Pakistan if a wim for Pakistan will give them a place in the semis?

I find that very hard to believe.

18.30 Tony Lewis, of Duckworth and Lewis, has emailed giving us the correct permutation. A newer version of the software was implemented for this tournament, which Tony has. Per the new WinCODA2 software being used by Tony and the scorers in South Africa, India's target will be 266 in 42 overs. Thanks for that Tony. Appreciated.

18.35 Keith Lane, one of Cricinfo's South African residents, says it is hard to predict even a 20 overs game as it is bucketing down

The ball might not come on bat properly as it might be slipping. Thats all I am aware of not sure about other reason

thanks and i think the outfield would be slower than the previous on which Ausie batted :13:
 
no result means points are split ?

in that case we should be through to the semis.
 
its raining hard in Centurian, i am watching direct tv's live feed, i don't think there will be any match, bye bye india
 
Due to wet outfield it will be hard for the bowlers o grip the ball, the ball will skid on and will come onto the bat much better.
 
there are large puddles of water forming as seen on TV.....I don't think there will be any more play here.
 
18.40 Pools of water all around. Looks awful. Unlikely play will resume any time soon.

We are in the semis can't see any game happening today. :D
 
If there are puddles in the field forming just call it off so that I can find out what the remaining scenario's for Indian/Aussie qualification are.

18.40 Pools of water all around. Looks awful. Unlikely play will resume any time soon. I will say it again - there is no reserve day. Even for the final. India and Australia will just share points. So that means India will have to beat West Indies, Pakistan will have to beat Australia, and even then India's net run rate will have to be good for them to move on. For Australia, a win or a split point will take them through. Even if they lose they can make it on net run rate.


Can anyone tell me what that means?

suppose if todays match ends in a draw and tomorrow if Pak loses to Aussie GOD FORBIDS so it means that Indians will pack their bags?:73:

Am I the only one that thinks the rain has done India a favour? I mean they were in danger of having to chase 320+ and they were not going to get that. At least now they still have a slim chance of qualifying, even though they will need a big hand from Pakistan.

Yes as cricinfo says (read bolded part),
18.40 Heavy rain. Pools of water all around. Looks awful. Unlikely play will resume any time soon. I will say it again - there is no reserve day. Even for the final. India and Australia will just share points. So that means for India to go on they will have to beat West Indies, Pakistan will have to beat Australia, and even then India's net run rate will have to be good for them. For Australia, a win or a split point will take them through. Even if they lose they can make it on net run rate.

It means its raining HARD!
 
18.55 Hundreds of emails about the post at 18.40. People are getting confused with the line "For Australia, a win or a split point will take them through." That line does not refer to this match. It refers to their next game against Pakistan. NOT this match. Pakistan have already beaten West Indies. If Australia beat Pakistan, then both those teams are through.


LoLz I sent them 5 mails and they reffered it as hundreds :p
