DSG vs MICT

5:55 PM local time, 9:25 PM IST: It continues to rain here in Durban. Not much has changed in the last hour or so, only the puddles have become bigger and the stands have gone emptier. The umpires wll have an inspection at 6 PM local time, 9:30 PM IST which is just 5 minutes away from now. The cutoff time is still over an hour away but I think we are fast approaching the inevitable.

The cut-off time for a 5-over game is 7:05 PM local time, 10:35 PM IST which is just over 2 hours away from now. We do have time in our hands but chances looking bleak for action to resume as the rain continues to pour down

4:55 PM local time, 8:25 PM IST: We've officially started losing overs. The rain continues to fall and the ground is getting drenched now. This does not look good at all

4:30 PM local time, 8 PM IST: No signs of improvement, still raining and the entire square has now been under covers since the last 40 minutes or so. We are moving towards the territory of a shortened contest. Puddles are starting to form on the outfield, remember only the square is covered and the rest of the ground is bearing the brunt of the rain

Fg: ""I hate it, raining at present. What is the intensity of the rain?""
The rain is not heavy as I previously mentioned but it is steady and irritating

Meanwhile, Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma have both notched up 50s and India are on a rampage against Sri Lanka Women in Trivandrum. You don't want to be missing it, catch all the live action here

Deep: "Klaasen vs Rashid Khan... Similar to undertaker vs stone cold"
Very interesting comparison, Deep. I hope we get to see that battle tonight with the rain allowing it

Shaw: "For me, it is DSG's tournament to lose. They have the best batting lineup which can blow away any bowling attack on any given day and with the ball too they are very well served specially with their spinners in Noor and Harmer"
You make a valid point, Shaw. Only DSG would be able to tell you how they've managed to assemble a batting lineup that reads Conway, Williamson, Buttler, Klassen and Markram. However, cricket is a funny game as you'd know

Aniruddh Thakur: "DSG will sweep this away too if rain goes away!"
The second part of you comment is the key, Aniruddh. It is still raining and the covers are on as I type this, been 15 minutes of steady rain now. Not very hard rain, mind you

7:25 PM local time, 3:55 PM IST: The entire square has been covered and the rain seems to have picked up since the time the covers were brought on. Lots of umbrellas and raincoats in the stands now. Lets hope that this is just a passing shower and nothing more, the radar does indicate some steady rain now

Its seems like Rain is coming down at the moment. For the time being, the innings has been paused as the groundmen run on the field to cover the pitch. As it stands DSB are 37-0 with Convey batting on 24 (13) and Williamson on 12(11)
