"Tight contest between bat and ball" Ramiz Raja.


Anyway... I hate this thing about cricket. We need to make rain resistant pitches bats and balls
 
They should just ply indoors forget ths

5.00pm More rain, more covers, another stoppage. We didn't lose any overs with thelast one, but if this is a longish break, we might have a reduction. Sri Lanka have faced 24 overs, so if this is a very long break, we can have a scenario where they don't bat again, and still have a game
 
What the, Zee Cafe has cut to cooking now.

A bit of chopped garlic...

So Pak will have to chase a total of about 40/50 odd runs. Really funny!
 
This is exactly the reason why I do not like matches being hosted in SL. Too many matches have been washed away due to rain in SL over the years :facepalm:

So this is a threat for the 2012 T20 WC. This year's WC is going to be washed away.
NOOOOOO!:facepalm:
 
RamizSpeaks:
The only fun in a rain pause is that I can listen to the great Kishore. Listening to Meray Dewanepan ki bhi Dawa nahin! Brilliant..
 
Cricinfo :facepalm:

The rain has become heavier and we're in for another delay. The covers are on, so the hide and seek game continues..
 
5.15pm Rain does seem to have relented. Half the covers are off, but threatening clouds remain. And Ramiz Raja has tuned in to Kishore Kumar's songs - Cricinfo

The Cricinfo guy is hilarious today.

5.20pm Hoping for a resumption in 10 minutes or so. "i lived through an earthquake last week. thoughts?" Smudgeon, did you have Inzamam and Arjuna running sharp singles in your backyard?

:)) Kinda harsh.

5.15pm Rain does seem to have relented. Half the covers are off, but threatening clouds remain. And Ramiz Raja has tuned in to Kishore Kumar's songs. Currently, he says, he is listening to this. And now he is taking of the time Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan visited his house. Rambo is a great storyteller. Wiki link for non-Pakistanis and non-Indians

Will stop watching the match if it rains again .

ICC better think of something
 
Rain Rain go Away!
Team Pakistan wants to Play,
Come down some other day,
When Things are not going our way!
 
What a performance thus far from the seamers! Great job especially by Gully, seems to be pumped after copping the axe for the 2nd T20.
 
Well, the last T20 was supposed to be last Sunday. But it looks like we'll be in for a T20 (or similar) match today as well.
 
Might need some flexibility in the batting order today & try to close out the game before the rain keeps coming back.
 
For CricInfo

5.35pm Covers coming off again. Meanwhile, we all know extras are top-scorers in this innings so far, but you'll be surprised at how often it has happened in ODI cricket
 
5.40pm Stumps are being erected again. Let's see if there will be a reduction as a result of this break. We have lost more than an hour in all, I would assume
 
@RamizSpeaks
Starting again. Wickets are put back on. No over reduction- full overs available we hear.
 
Surprising that we still have a full game.

Surely the next disruption will eat into the overs.
 
Poor effort , a bit laziness by Umar Akmal while picking the ball
