12.15 pm "Try sending the Srilankan Team in the Atakama Desert, and see if it rains there. I will, at the very least, expect some drizzle over there as well," says Hunbbel Meer. Nothing's changed on the weather front, yet. It's still coming down.

 

[MenInG]

It usually rains in Nov/Dec in the Arabian Gulf so guess not that much of a shock but the coincidence is amazing

 

[Pak_Jazba]

Weather improving now, clouds have disappeared to an extent, and it is getting brighter.

 

[kamz]

jis din match pe nahi gaya ussi din baarish hui, lagta hai ground jaana parega tabhi match shuroo hoga

 

[MenInG]

Itsmek1 in Sharjah tells us that covers are off and a very good likelihood of play starting soon ...

what is the point now ? just call it off .

 

[Zeeraq]

jis din match pe nahi gaya ussi din baarish hui, lagta hai ground jaana parega tabhi match shuroo hoga

Then in ODIs and T20s you must go to watch the match .

 

[kkmix]

Really no point now, just call it off.

 

[spoiled]

calling it off makes sense

but thats not how it happens..guess rules..laws

 

[adnan yasin]

[Radiance Of Australis]

Clouds have disappeared???? Are we still talking about Sharjah?

 

[Pak_Jazba]

Clouds have disappeared???? Are we still talking about Sharjah?

[zains_rulez]

Unexpected weather in Sharjah ,misbah will be happy now

 

[Bullet Drive]

Inshallah we have play.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Is it still raining.

 

[spoiled]

what are you all on about

nothing on cricinfo

 

[Bullet Drive]

Nothing at all on cinfo.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Double post.

 

[jattafridi]

The rain seems to have stopped at long last. The Sri Lankan fielders are out there doing their stretches. I wonder if the game is already gone as far as they are concerned.

[Pak_Jazba]

Its stopped raining since half an hour now.

That mean they will be bowling.
Pakistan should go for target, it will be only 4 rpo anyways

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good news, how long?

 

[Pak_Jazba]

Im afraid these 67 overs, could turn out to be difficult for Pak as its cloudy and windy right now. SL might be favouring their chances.

 

[Pak_Jazba]

^ Plus, its unlikely we are going to have more rain, because it doesn't rain heavily again after it has rained once in this part of the world.

 

[Bullet Drive]

10 minutes!

 

[talha3]

SL should declare straight away

 

[Bullet Drive]

4 an over needed?

We must go for a win.

You surely have no idea how difficult it is going to be to bat out there today. 4 over an over would look like 8 an over when they go out to bat.

 

[Bullet Drive]

We will win inshallah

 

[jattafridi]

98 all out my predicton

 

[Bullet Drive]

Starting now.

 

[Pak_Jazba]

98 all out my predicton

Recently played England vs SL test comes to my mind, on how the match was set for a draw, but SL folded and collapsed in under 2 sessions to lose the game.

 

[Bullet Drive]

They aint declared

 

[Bullet Drive]

Very dull out there and feels they are in the UK

 

[MenInG]

Match to start in 5 minutes

 

[Pak_Jazba]

What is this ??!!!

I haven't seen a defensive and scared captain as Dilshan. Not even Misbah would have decided to bat on during this situation. 237 is more than ample for 2 sessions. Give yourself a chance will you?

Pathetic stuff from SL.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Play to finish at 6pm

 

[Bullet Drive]

Smashed, no run.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Why haven't SL declarded.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Run out appeal?

 

[Bullet Drive]

Don't think its out.

 

[Bullet Drive]

He's in.

 

[Bullet Drive]

166-5

 

[Bullet Drive]

"It's so funny to see Ramiz Raja with his jungle of hair and Jayasuriya with no hair on his head joining the commentary box." They complement each other, Shahid.

 

[Osman]

cowardly stuff from Sri Lanka! pussies!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Easy single.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Too many easy singles on offer.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Poor stuff from SL. This is there chance to win.

 

[talha3]

[Bullet Drive]

India are getting smashed.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Slower ball from Gul.

[Asif321]

[Bullet Drive]
