Match Centre

Quick stuff from Chanderpaul and Jacobs does the rest.

Rain strikes, predictably Very heavy rain and Messrs Duckworth and Lewis will soon have work to do Ganguly would be feeling livid at having got himself run out a few seconds before the rain started pouring The rain has stopped but the ground is still soggy and wet The covers are going off though, the only concern would be the outfield Its still quite windy at the Kallang ground, the covers now covering only the pitch and the area around it We dont have any information on the # of overs, revised targets and the like The covers are still on Ground staff have promised the umpires that the field will be ready by 1600 SST (0800 GMT)

If the rain does continue, the total will be around 140. There is a reserve day tomorrow It will be a brand new game and not a continuation of the current game (unlike what happened between Ind and Eng in WC99)

The umpires have waited and decided that its bad news They've tried their best but the outfield isnt good enough. The match is abandoned. There will be a replay tomorrow Join us on www.cricket.org at 0145 GMT for the replay of the final of the Coca Cola Singapore Challenge Keep your fingers crossed for a prompt start, no rain and of course, a full game !
